    Need help with display settings


    I am using File Explorer, and I have a number of separate sessions open, browsing different folders, so I can drag and drop contents from one folder to another.


    The problem is that the determining the boundaries of File Explorer Windows is very difficult, especially when they cover each other.


    I do not know if I need to change my theme or if there is some other setting where the active window can stand out, or I can get a larger border at the edges, so I can tell where one window's borders are. Right now it is almost like the windows have no border color.


    Any tips or tutorial sites related to this would greatly be appreciated.

    You may want to answer these questions to get more clarity on this issue:

    1. May I know the make and model of the PC?
    2. Did you try updating your display driver?
    3. Are you getting any error message?

    I suggest you to follow the below steps and check if it helps.

    Steps 1:

    1. Go to settings
    2. Click on “System"
    3. Then click on Display
    4. Move your mouse to the monitor that needs to be set as primary and check the box
      "Make this my main display"
    5. Under "Multiple displays" select "Duplicate these displays"
    6. Then select “Keep this display settings
    Once you make these changes, you may restart the computer and check.

    Hope it helps,
