Display issue: "modern" apps fail to render with external display

Has anyone else seen this problem?


I have Lenovo G50-80 laptop with external VGA display 1920x1080, this is set as primary display.


Most of Win10 "modern" aka "metro" apps (Mail, Store) fail to render correctly on the external screen when their window is bigger than the LCD of the laptop (1366x768).

At least it looks like this.

When I resize these apps more than certain size, the added area will not render and stays transparent or filled by background color.

Moving the window around, further resizes and so on do not help.


"Normal" aka classic desktop apps are ok.


This behavior started in version 1708 and still continues after 1803 update.


I thought this is something hardware related (G50-80 has dual video adapters, Intel and Radeon). Asked in Lenovo forum but can't get any answer from them.
