  1. Window snap outline not dissapearing


    You know how when you drag a window to the side of the screen and it makes an outline then when you drop it the window "snaps" to the side? Sometimes the outline just stays there and it wont disappear unless I put a window close to it making another outline and causing it to reset. Even when I do this, it still reappears even in the startup screen where you put in your password and stuff. Is there any way to fix this? I'm using windows 11.

    :)

  2. Black outlines of floating windows

    Hi Nathan,

    The issue might occur due to corrupted display drivers or incompatible drivers.

    I suggest you to update display drivers from device manager and check if it helps.

    To update the drivers, follow the steps below.


    • Type “Device Manager” in search box and press Enter.

    • Right click on the drivers for Display and Touchscreen and select Update.

    • Follow the on-screen prompts to update.
    Please get back to us with the results in regards with black outline

    Snap Assist

    Hi Cory,

    The Snap Assist allows you to juggle apps, arrange open windows, resize windows by simply dragging and dropping them to the edges of the screen. If you don't want to get a quarter screen snap, you can change the settings of Snap Assist by follow the steps below:

    • Open the Settings app
    • Click System.
    • Click Multitasking.
    • You can turn off some of the option of Snap Assist on this window.

    If you want to disable Snap Assist, you can turn off Arrange windows automatically by dragging them to the sides or corners of the screen.

    Should you have further queries, feel free to post it.

    Weird text outlining- Windows 10

    Hi,

    Before we proceed, I need more information to help you better.


    • What is the exact issue that you’re facing with Windows 10?

    • What exactly do you mean by weird text outlining?

    • Are you facing any issue with applications?
    In the screenshot, I am unable to see any weird outlining. But if you are seeing any issue with the display then I suggest you to try installing all the pending Windows Updates and check for the issue. If the issue still persists then try changing
    the resolution and check.

    Thanks and regards.
