C0D463824252dMy money is on a busted LED, it's the equivalent of a dead pixel.
Time for a new monitor. -
Fast-Nop33327252d@shivv Does that vertical bar always stay, i.e. also when you open applications at that position? Like, a browser?
Did you try unplugging and replugging the signal cable on both of its ends? -
Nanos10826252dThings you could try, which come with some degree of risk, eg. could make things worse !
Turn it upside down.
Flex it a little from corner to corner.
Drop it screen side down onto a flat hard surface from about 3cm.
Massage very gently with your fingertip along the line the screen without pushing so hard you damage it.
Try it with another computer, in case its your graphics card. :-)
You probably want to do that one first..
What resolution and refresh rate is it running in, and what kind of connection does it use, HDMI 1.4 ? -
Nanos10826252dhttps://www.freecycle.org for free stuff.
Ebay can be pretty cheap for 2nd hand monitors, I got one for $1 !
If you can't afford $1, setup a GoFundMe page and one of us I imagine will throw you $1.

Actually, you might want to ask for $2, since about 50% goes in taxes I hear.. -
hack5101252dCreate a 1920x1080 image with one color that matches the line color. Set it as desktop wallpaper and viola! Line is gone forever (only works on desktop)
