Desktop glitch after allowing programs to make changes to computer
I just got my new computer, a Dell XPS 8300, and I noticed that it has a weird desktop glitch. When I try to maximize a window, it will not reach the very top of the screen. There is always a small piece of the desktop at the top of every window.
Then, I noticed that desktop icons cannot be moved onto the top part of the screen.
When I log off and log back on, the problem goes away. However, as soon as I do something that causes windows to open one of those pop ups asking whether I want to allow a program to make changes to the computer, the problem comes back. I know that I can disable the pop ups in user account control, but I would rather not if there is another way to fix this problem. If anyone has experience with this problem, I would appreciate advice as to how to fix it.
