Apps on MacBook freezes when holding green expand button for split screen

When i hold down green expand button (mainly happen on chrome but one note as well) to make the screen have split screen, the application freezes and becomes unresponsive. It also doesn't force quit by holding down the apps in the bar at the bottom, i have to go into apple logo and then force quit.

Unclickable areas on screen To Whom It May Concern--- I have a MacBook Pro running macOS Monterey on it and I am currently experiencing (2) 1" tall x the width of my screen bands at the bottom of my MacBook Pro which are not clickable within any application. When I click in these zones either nothing happens (when only one application is open) or the current application screen will disappear and the application screen below pops up with the same dead area in those bands. Please let me know what the fix is. Thank you. The following is my system hardware and software info.: Computer: MacBook Pro (16-inch, 2019) macOS: Monterey v. 12.5.1 Best-- Ray

Try restarting it, if that didn’t work delete and then reinstall chrome.
