Maximizing "Settings" -> Doesn't fill all the way to the top of the screen.
Is anyone else seeing this with "Settings"? When I maximize it, there's a blank bar at the very top where you can see whatever is behind the Settings window.
In my attachment, you can see some of the items on my desktop.

My taskbar is at the bottom. I just cropped it out of the screenshot. This is only happening with "Settings".
