Windows 10: Opening edge breaks my screen, is this a known issue?

I have an issue where if I open edge or heaven forbid use windows search and it opens, any application open will no longer use my full screen, and shortcuts and other stuff on my desktop will shift off the space no longer usable. it is a 1920 x 1080 monitor and cuts off about 3-4 inches off the right side of the monitor. The background is still there and the taskbar is too. It happened after whatever this copilot thing is popped up and actually its the space that it takes up on the right side of screen that i cant use when it breaks. I can move my mouse there and hover app icons over it, but w

:)

 

After win10 anniversary install, ms edge always opens full screen.

Microsoft Edge doesn't open in Windows 10

Microsoft Edge doesn't open in Windows 10.

Somehow my system got infected with some malware. Due to which Edge was opening random ads in new tabs with any click on any site. After some efforts I cleaned the malware, but the malware seem to have broken edge; some edge files also got cleaned out.

Now while opening opening blue screen comes fine, just a quick flash of Edge window comes but without showing anything or allowing to do anything closes itself.

I couldn't uninstall and re-install as Edge doesn't show in programs list.

I also tried following steps as suggested by the Microsoft Virtual support agent, No issues came up with that and nothing got resolved.

• Press Windows key + X.
• Click command prompt (Run as administrator).
• In the Administrator Command Prompt window, type the following commands. Press Enter key after each command:
  • DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Scanhealth
  • DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth
