Windows 7, 64 bit
When I maximize any application it fills the top half of the screen and I cannot get it to fill the entire screen. Also all desktop icons are now on the top half of the screen as well. When I try to drag them to the bottom they go right back to the top half. Software or hardware was not changed, went home with it working and the next morning it was doing this. I did not see any threads for this problem.

In Device manager uninstall the Display adapter, reboot so it will reinstall itself. Change?
Did you use the Windows magnifier? If yes, run it again and close it properly.
Or did you resize the taskbar? If yes, try unlocking the taskbar, then resize it to fill half of the screen and then resize it back to the original size and lock the taskbar.
These are the only instances I can think of when icons and open windows are resized/change position.
