  1. Why are my tabs opening off my monitor screen and how do I fix it?


    When I open my Microsoft edge browser, it opens to the very left of the screen, and only a tiny bit is showing. I have to click and drag it across for me to be able to even expand the tab. When I click on a tab through my task bar, it doesn’t open it. With my steam app, it opens the the tab completely off the screen. When I try to access it from the task bar, it still won’t open on my screen. I’ve never had a second monitor or device hooked up. I even looked through my display settings and nothing was wrong there either. I would show a picture of this but all it would show is a blank screen be

    2. feedback to Microsoft

    I need assistance on both suggestions; how to

    Second monitor screen resolution problem

    Hi,

    For us to properly isolate the issue with your second monitor screen resolution, we would like to know the following:


    • Were there any changes made on your computer prior to the issue (e.g., updates, software installation)?

    • When did the issue first begin?

    • To make sure that we have not missed on anything, what troubleshooting steps have you done so far?

    In the meantime, we suggest that you try resetting your monitor settings, and check if the issue still persists. You may refer to your monitor on how to reset it.

    We look forward to your response.
