    Unclickable area in bottom left quadrant of screen


    There is a rectanglular area on bottom left of my screen which is unclickable. If I put cursor there, it just shows the spinning wheel incessantly. I can usually workaround by moving windows such that I don't have to click in that area, but it is annoying. Can anyone help with a simple solution?

    :)

    Unclickable area on second monitor, Windows 10

    There is an area on the lower left corner of my 2nd screen which is unclickable, regardless of whatever software is displayed on the screen.

    The unclickable area is approximately around 260px wide and 60px tall, stuck to the very bottom left of the second screen.

    I couldn't find either an explanation of a similar problem, or a solution about that. I'd appreciate any suggestions or a solution.

    Side note: I'm using Windows taskbar on top and locked.

  3. Windows 10 - my windows resize automatically and move to top left of the screen

    Sorry for the false hope. It did NOT solve the problem after all. Each time my monitor comes back from sleep, my folders are in a 3" square in the upper left quadrant of my screen. I have tried every suggestion in this thread but none of them work so
    far.

  4. Unclickable area in bottom left quadrant of screen

    Cannot put icons on the left side of my desktop

    Hi Charlie,

    You should be able to arrange your desktop icons however you want. Since you want them all aligned on the left side of your desktop screen, we suggest that you follow these steps:

    • Right-click at a blank area on your desktop.
    • Hover on View.
    • In the right pane, look for Auto arrange icons. If it's checked, make sure to uncheck it.
    • Hover again on View.
    • This time, check Align icons to grid. Your icons should now be aligned on the left side of the screen.

    Let us know if the issue persists so we can further assist you.

    Regards.
