A temporary fix is to use the key combination Windows key + Ctrl + Shift + B

I think it resets the graphics driver. Note that your screens will go blank for a second.

Hopefully the issue is resolved in the new build being released soon.

    Same for me, HP with additional monitor. 

    This occured the first time for me today. No special software, just booted with Chrome, Word and Explorer.

    Has anyone got any further information on this?

    Do we think we are waiting for Microsoft to do an update.

    The workaround is nice, but would be good to finally get a fix in place.

    I swapped resolutions back and forth between this and it seems to have refreshed things enough to fix my issue.

    Same Problem here. My issue with the window being cut of at top was introduced either during Windows 10 Update or NVIDIA driver update. I am running current versions for both (OS and Graphics).

    I am using 3 screens, resolution was never an issue.

    I am using WIN Version 1803 BUILD 17134.648. NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970 (Driver version 419.17). 

    I used the above suggested key-combo to reset my graphics card and now its working. Thanks again to Bhavik for giving us a temporary fix. 

    Should be addressed by NVIDIA and / or Microsoft for long term fix (if not allready done).
