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.

    Any software fixes haven't trickled down to new yet. Had a new pc this month and see this screen cut off within just a few weeks. It happens with Opera and Edge, along with File Manager. Most frustrating.

    This only seems to happen for me when I open Microsoft Word. When that happens, Word is fine, but most other applications that are open on my primary display get the tops cut off. I have to unplug and re-plug the external monitor to fix it, but it's only a temporary fix - next time I open Word it'll happen again.
