Finally set up Windows 10 on my Windows 7 machine this morning (thanks to @GoodBytes here: I did it for free as well! Right now, two issues bother me. First, I have dual monitors and at the top, near the boundary between them, there’s a small protrusion that sticks out. It bothers me when moving windows between screens—it wasn’t the same with Windows 7. Anyone know how to fix this "peg"? (I don’t know the French term for it...) The second issue is with my monitor. As shown in the picture, the display doesn’t reach the edge anymore since I upgraded to Windows 10 (it used to go all the way). Does anyone know how to adjust it so it does? Thanks in advance, Ben

Open the monitor settings, then adjust the fill and fit settings until it matches the edges.

Also verify your screen settings. If everything looks good, check whether your connection uses HDMI. If it does, there may be an underscan problem that needs adjusting in the graphics card settings. Underscan and overscan issues typically occur with HDMI, since it wasn’t built for PCs.

That's perfect! Do you understand what the small device between the two screens is used for?

It seems unclear what you're asking about. Could you clarify your question? Are you referring to a visual element, cursor behavior, or something else?

It's as if it "hit a little peg." You need to move the mouse about 25 pixels to shift from one monitor position to another. Otherwise, it remains stuck at the screen edge... (referring to the term "peg")

There are two main issues to consider. First, since Windows 8 introduced a slight pause when moving the cursor between screens at the top, it can cause the cursor to switch displays without fully registering the change. This pause is minor but intended to help quickly close a maximized app so you don’t miss your click. The second issue stems from alignment problems in the display settings or graphics card controls, which prevent the cursor from crossing properly. You can fix this by adjusting the display settings under Start > Settings (gear) > System > Display. Both screens can be positioned at the same resolution to avoid these problems.

It depends on what you mean by "stop." If you're referring to a specific feature, it might no longer exist in the current version. Otherwise, it could be part of your new OS experience. Let me know for clarity!
