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.

    This fixed my issue as well. It is soooo frustrating. Seems like the driver has issues. It is updated. Not first time it has happened./...

    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.

    My computer is a 3yr old Dell OptiPlex 7050, running Windows 10 Pro and this just started happening a couple of weeks ago.  Never seen this issue before that!  Word and Visio seem to be triggers for me.

    Microsoft really should get a solution to this!

    This is apparently still a problem with Windows 10 three years later, although it only recently started happening to me after using Windows 10 since 2016. Really strange. Fortunately Bhavik's solution worked, although it's not a permanent fix.

    Check the display settings for the monitor affected. I noticed that when changing the setting of making apps appear larger. The monitor that was affected was set to 150%. I lowered to 125% and the issue went away.
