Can't get computer screen to go full screen (monitor, mouse, screens)

[Wartrace]

I have a newer Nvidia video card and a 46" monitor. The screen doesn't go all the way to the bezel on the top and two sides. It does touch the bottom bezel. It is only about 1/4" BUT it bugs me.

I tried adjusting the screen in Windows 11 to full screen. It didn't work.
I tried adjusting the screen in the Nvidia control panel to full screen. It didn't work.
I checked my monitor controls and it is set to full screen.
All drivers are up to date.

Any idea how to fix this? Thanks in advance!

Windows?
Go to Settings, Display and go to the Scale and layout section. Scale or resolution may help????

Go to your desktop.

Right Click
Click on Display Settings
Under "Display Resolution" Chose (Recommended) display resolution

That should fill you whole monitor.

As a last resort if the other suggestions don't work, you can put your mouse on the edge of the screen that doesn't go full screen. Right on the middle of the line (border), and it should turn into an arrow that points both ways. Left click on this arrow and drag the arrow while holding it down, towards the sides, or up and down, whichever way you want it to go, until you fill up the screen. Then let go.

Thanks for all the replies. Nothing seems to work so I guess I'll just have to live with it. It's not a big deal but its annoying.

Go into the TV settings - probably in Picture there's a Zoom setting or something similar. Make sure it's dot by dot. A number of TV's will be set for something different. Not an issue when you plug in a cable box or a streaming stick, but plug a computer in and it's not always the same. Most of my commercial screens in my office had to be changed due to whatever we plugged in either not filling the screen or being blown up.
