All,
I am having a very strange screen issue and am baffled as to what is going it. I have attached a screen vid of what's happening. I seem to have a 'void' or inaccessible location at the bottom right edge of my screen that is unusable. It's about the size of 1" x 4" rectangle. I cannot move anything into that location (see vid) and when I have something open that might require a mouse click in that location, the mouse click is unrecognized. I have to either restore down to move the desired click window out of that location or move the entire window to the left to be able to access the button that was in that location. The vid will show this better. I've gone through a few things - check any overlays, taskbar issues, scaling - but nothing seems to affect it. I don't know what the heck is going on. Thanks for any feedback.

I think you could usefully start by reinstalling your display driver.

What happned just before this problem started?

Nothing. I just noticed it happening a few days ago.

I did that, still the same. I read a post where someone mentioned moving the curser into the area and then <alt>F4 to close whatever is there. Will try that in a bit... working on other stuff.

Well apparently you can have an app running in a 'transparent window' and that will affect what can be moved or placed within that window. Moving the cursor into the window (where it appears as a '⌀') and then <alt>+F4 closes that transparent window. That fixed the problem. I have no idea how I opened a 'transparent window' or what was in it but the problem is fixed now. Thanks for those who provided feedback.
