Chrome, Edge & Firefox, all crash and the OS becomes unresponsive, I can't recover it unless I shutdown.
Anyone else seeing this?
Update:
A temporary solution is to use recommended display resolution or change to MS basic display driver.
Known issues
[NEW] We’re investigating reports that some Insiders are experiencing freezes when using the browser and certain other apps after the previous Dev Channel flight.
Update:
I added build 25290 to the tiltle because even though the blog calls it fixed, some users are still experiencing this bug.

It is not just affecting the snipping tool
In my case it is the only app behaving that way. ��♂️
The bug was reported originally by C.K. with 25272, never been addressed nor fixed.
It affects all my machines that have Standard screens HD or UHD, they only work with recommended resolution with all Dev Builds.
They work fine at any resolution with 22621 and 22623 builds.
You are a special case; it is still broken for everybody else. 🤣🤣
Still waiting for this to happen, there was never a post in the blog for a fix of the resolution issues.
I can only speak for myself.
Except for 2 or 3 guys including you, I haven't seen anymore complains, not even CK is updating her FB. 🤷♂️
edit:
Not the only one btw 😁
How many people do you actually see checking for the bugs?
Everybody on the silly forums just say installing, no problems. Thanks CK. 🤣🤣🤣
They are just not even checking for problems. 😎
You go on the web or other forums and find plenty of users reporting bugs.

That was a dam lie, they never fixed anything.
One more thing to notice, common to Dev and Beta.
Since they added the recording on Snipping tool, it does not open back on its own after taking a snip, I have to click on the taskbar icon again to reopen it and see the snip that was just taken. not a big deal, but it is a different behavior too.
Not really a lie, as I said, it was fixed for me.
That other ST issue is known and documented since release.
Weirdly enough, I see that bug on VM but not on my laptop. The laptop behave as shown, random size window randomly positioned off screen.
Screen recording in Snipping Tool begins rolling out to Windows Insiders
There is also a known issue where the Snipping Tool app window does not restore when initiating a new snip from within the app.

They actually added a new bug in 25300, where they screw up the desktop after the update or even an update/repair in place.
They are much quicker on adding bugs, than fixing them. 🤣🤣🤣🤐🤬
Job security strategy! 🤐🤐🤐
