Dumb, white strip on top of your monitor

[357mag]

This is not necessarily a question pertaining to using NTLite but I would like to ask it anyway. There is a dumb, white strip that appears on the top of my monitor when I move a window closer to the top of the monitor.

Copilot does say it can be annoying and has given me some recommendations to try but so far I have not been able to get rid of it.

Have any of you been able to get rid of it?

You mean the Snap Assist feature?

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced]
"EnableSnapBar"=dword:00000000

No. It does not look like Snap Assist. It is a white strip that is at the top center of your monitor. Not the corners or edges. I have tried many things to get rid of it with no luck so far.

But I will be doing a reinstall of Windows 11 and installing my drivers so perhaps that will fix the issue.

It's an artifact of Snap Assist. Turn off Snap Assist, and the skinny white line disappears.

Thank You Much. Now the problem I'm having is the Copilot icon disappeared from my taskbar. Opening up the Microsoft Store and trying to download and install it didn't work. I found a question similar on a Microsoft site and it led me to be able to download it. But now the icon says M365 which stands for Microsoft 365 and when I click on it it wants me to sign in and it looks like Microsoft wants me to buy into something.

All I want is to be able to use Copilot like I was before the icon disappeared.

Okay I found out that there are two versions of Copilot. I inadvertently downloaded and installed the office version which I don't want. I found the free version by clicking Start and looking among the apps.

It's okay now.

This Windows 11 seems like it's buggy. Duplicate drive listings in File Explorer? That bug was in Windows 10 also. Why do they release as OS with glaring bugs?

That's not a bug, it's supposed to be that way. /shrug
