I have had an issue with my Terraria since a few weeks now.
That issue consists of the game starting in a wrong resolution.
The issue has started occuring after I reinstalled my Terraria. As I deleted all data except for the Savefiles, which I backed up, I also deleted the config.json. I have changed all the settings in game to what they were before the reinstall. My native resolution is 1920x1080 as I am running on a Acer Predator GN276HLbid 27 inch Monitor.
Now to the problem: When I start up my Terraria, my screen goes black for a short while and then my Desktop is displayed in a very small resolution, that does not cover up the entirety of my Screen and leaves black bars on the corners:

The screenshot here does only show the window that is actually displayed, not the black bars as they are not actually part of what is being displayed.
In comparison, this is what my steam looks normally:

After that weird resolution bug, the screen goes white for a few seconds and after that Terraria launches in the right resolution as if nothing happened.
Other windows that are open in the background remain in this weird resolution however, to get them back to normal I need to reduce the window size and then maximize the window again.
Additionally, whenever I tab out of the game and try to tab back into it, the screen goes white for a few seconds.
I know these problems are not gamebreaking or horrible but especially when tabbing in and out quite often, as I do a lot of Pixelart and need pictures for reference, it gets quite annoying.
Thanks to anyone who takes the time to figure out what's wrong with my Terraria!
