Problem with Windows 10 & Minesweeper Adventure

I've recently upgraded to Windows 10 from Windows 8.1.  I've played Minesweeper Adventure & Treasure Hunt numerous times when I had Windows 8.1 with no difficulty.  Now that I've upgraded to Windows 10, the screen is blacked off to the right.  The game board that is covered up by the black screen will move to a point and then stop.  Arrow buttons will not move the screen like they did in Windows 8.1.  At no point is the entire level of the game able to be seen like it was seen in Windows 8.1.

I haven't checked to see if it happens in other games.

Does anyone know what might be wrong or how to fix it?

    Bit long winded but have found that can still play the game by getting close to the hidden portion on the right hand side, stop, zoom in, use the right arrow to move cursor over to the hidden portion of the board which will be visible when zoomed in and then finish off clearing the last two rows and exit.  Hopefully Microsoft will solve the problem with an update but at least can finish each level.  Bit addictive this game :)

    Main is running win 10 and play with no snags but tablet has the problem even if I try running game in tablet mode.  Like everyone else updating drivers did not work and tried downloading treasure hunt but this had the same problem - right hand of screen missing where exit from level should be.  Mine also worked for first couple of days before going haywire.  Will wait and see if any Win 10 updates correct snag.

    I have been able to circumvent this annoying problem by running Adventure in "tablet" mode. I see that there was a reply describing changing the screen resolution.

    I am still hoping for a fix as it makes completing a level impossible.
