Windows 10: Weird issue displaying windows.

Prior to a recent set of Updates Windows 10 would let me display windows side by side with no issues. Since these updates (WHICH I HAD NO CONTROL OVER)... When I select display windows side by side I get windows didplayed one above the other??? Anyone any idea what the heck is going on?

Having a weird font display issue with windows 10

Hi Vitiser,

Welcome to Microsoft Community.

I appreciate your interest on windows 10 and also for providing screen short of the issue.

This issue could have occurred due to corrupt graphics drivers.

I would suggest you to update your graphics card driver.

Follow the steps to update drivers.
a) Press “Windows Logo” + “X” keys on the keyboard.

b) Click on “Device Manager”.

c) Search for the device that you would like to update from the computer.

d) Right click on it and select “Update”.

e) Follow the on-screen instructions and restart the computer, if prompted.

If it doesn't work I would suggest you to download latest graphics drivers

from Manufacturer website.

If it doesn't work I would suggest you to check the root of the problem by

booting Windows in 'Safe mode' and check the display.

Follow the link to boot in safe mode.

I hope this helps.

Let us know the status of the issue so that we can assist you better.

Thanks.

 

Having a weird font display issue with windows 10

I tried both of your solutions and still have the problem, any other suggestions?

 

First, make sure your GPU (graphics) is updated from the manufacturer's website (i.e. NOT through windows update).

Next, go into Control Panel\Appearance and Personalization\Display\Screen Resolution and see if you can move the monitor over to the correct position you want it in.

 

That's not the issue. Read my post carefully and you will see that up until the updates to Windows 10 everything was working as it should. Right clicking the task bar and selecting show windows side by side did exactly that. Since the updates, nothing to do with graphics drivers etc, instead of displaying the windows side by side as it originally did... I now get the windows shown one ABOVE the other not side by side. I've tried doing all sorts of settings adjustments but without results. I can't even identify which update did this. It's time Microsoft backed down and admitted publicly they screwed up YET AGAIN and we can have full admin rights and FULL control over settings and personalisation.

 

Desktop program windows or APPs ?

 

Ah, now I think I know what you mean. My computer does it just fine. Try clicking one of the other options... Does something different happen? Let me search up abit about this and see if I find anything.

 

I see exactly the same as Lord Zaeon (I've never used that before so can't say if it did work). Cascade is ok. (These are desktop programs).

 

Seems it is broken....

Yes, it would seem to be a small bug. MS likely will release a fix any time now.
