Ifyour computer screen is stretched on Windows 10 , don’t worry. The problem can be caused by incorrect resolution configuration or the faulty Graphics drivers. Just use the solutions in this post to fix the problem.

We’ve included two possible solution:

Solution 1: check display settings

The stretched screen issue can be caused by faulty display settings. Follow the steps below to check the display settings.

1. Right-click the desktop and click Display settings on the context menu.

2. ClickAdvanced display settings .

3. Be sure the resolution is set at the recommended level. If not, change it to the recommended solution.

4. Reboot your PC and check to see if the problem is resolved.

If the problem persists, you can try to update the graphics card driver.

Solution 2: Update the graphics driver

If steps above doesn’t resolve the problem, try to update the graphics card drivers.

If you don’t have the time, patience or computer skills to update the drivers manually, you can do it automatically with Driver Easy .

Driver Easy will automatically recognize your system and find the correct drivers for it. You don’t need to know exactly what system your computer is running, you don’t need to risk downloading and installing the wrong driver, and you don’t need to worry about making a mistake when installing.

You can update your drivers automatically with either the FREE or the Pro version of Driver Easy. But with the Pro version it takes just 2 clicks (and you get full support and 30-day money back guarantee):

1. Download and install Driver Easy.

2. Run Driver Easy and click Scan Now . Driver Easy will then scan your computer and detect any problem drivers.

Or click Update All to automatically download and install the correct version of all the drivers that are missing or out of date on your system (this requires the Pro version – you’ll be prompted to upgrade when you click Update All).
