I have no idea why my war photos keep coming split screen.
Assuming that you are using the Windows Paint app...
When you paste into Paint, whether you scroll or click on the resulting image with the cursor - say to crop the image - when a new image is pasted into Paint, the new image will fill onto the screen starting from the horizontal line at the top of the window, even if it is not the actual top line of the image.
There are three solutions that I am aware of, which I use:
1. Don't scroll or click on the image that you paste
2. Scroll the Paint window back to the top of the image before each paste
2. If you want to be extra safe, then save the image and restart Paint before you paste a new image
There is possibly a better understanding to be found if you Google this question. But this is the method I use!
