It might be the fault of your WM, for example I have this in
~/.fluxbox/apps:
[app] (name=emacs) (class=Emacs)
[Deco] {NONE}
[Maximized] {yes}
[end]
Can you also start Emacs with -q? Do you start emacs as root? Did
you perform a system upgrade recently? I cannot reproduce this
locally with GNU Emacs 25.3.1 (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version
3.18.9) after removing the aforementioned lines from ~/.fluxbox/apps.
