Windows 10: Vertically stacked dual monitors - browsers extend into top monitor

Hi,


I have the exact same problem as described here: https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/all/dual-monitor-problem-browser-windows-showing-up-to/239833c3-66a5-43ce-825d-c19882168f81, which did not get answered successfully.


I have two monitors, one above the other. When I maximise my browser I've tried Chrome and Firefox in the bottom screen, the browser extends on to the top screen. I've tried everything suggested in the thread I linked but nothing fixes it. I can stack them side-by-side, but I don't want to do that as they're vertically stacked monitors, and this should just work properly. Does anyone know how to fix it?

Screensaver slideshow does not display correctly whith dual monitors set to "extend desktop"

Objective: I have dual monitors (as an extended desktop, side by side) and want it to show my own pictures as a screensaver slideshow in Windows 10.

Problem: Only the lower half ot the picture is diplayes in the top half of monitor 1. Monitor 2 is black.

Addtional observations:

• In "Screen Saver Settings" the small mock-up display looks fine, however when i select "Preview" the problem with only half the picture displayed occurs also in the preview.
• The problem does not occur with only one monitor in use
• The problem does not occur with dual monitors set to "Duplicate these displays"

Gratefull for all suggestions to solve the problem

The same picture also work fine as desctop background with different pictures displayed on each monitor.
