Windows 10. Two monitors. The left (monitor 2) is set as "main". In this display, windows that are maximized - with explorer or any other app - has the following "features":
1) The top part of the window (about 1 cm) is black. The top left corner is also a black rectangle about 2x2 cm. The top right corner is a black rectangle about 2 cm high x 8 cm long:
2) If you try to click or double click in the black area - for example, to close the window - or use the min max buttons or the upper left corner window menu system - the click(s) affect the underlying items. (eg: if there is a desktop item there - like the trashcan - it will open on double-click.) It behaves like the areas in black are "transparent" to the underling environment.
3) Therefore, you cannot min/max via window buttons; only though the taskbar menu system: but only if it is available.
4) This problem does not occur in my right (monitor 1) window.
I have tried restarting. I have done a sfc /scannow, as well as DISM CheckHealth/ScanHealth/RestoreHealth: no issues. I have not installed any new software anytime recently. The problem started yesterday. It is a surprisingly debilitating issue: I've had to resort to only using my right monitor.
