Full screen mode not working on my MacBook Air

I noticed the other day that I cannot enter full screen mode on anything, including Safari, Google Chrome, Microsoft Excel, essentially every application I have on here. I've tried control + command + F and the green button in the upper left corner. How can I fix this?

Reset NVRAM/PRAM by following the directions applicable to your MacBook here ➔ How to Reset NVRAM/PRAM. If that does not solve things then-
Enter ➔ Safe Mode and see if the screen issue still exists in Safe mode. Log out of Safe Mode and then reboot computer. If that does not solve things then-
Finally if none of the above works then you can enter ➔ macOS Recovery Mode and reinstall the macOS and see if that solves it.
