Hello All,

Hope you're doing well,

Recently, I've updated Microsoft Edge Browser and it frequently gets blurred automatically. After some time, It gets back to normal. When I checked this problem on the Internet, It asked me to turn off Hardware Acceleration in my Browser.

I turned off & restarted the browser but I am still facing the same problem. I've attached a screenshot of how it looks. Could anyone help me fix this issue ASAP?

Thank You :)

Regards,

Advaith N Aithal

    Right suggestion above. This is Edge/browser issue. This started happening to me last night. I knew immediately it is not a computer or graphic card issue because everything was focused above the tool bar. Otherwise, it would have scared me very much.

    I use Edge (with Win 11 Home) only and this is extremely inconvenient for me at the moment. It happens randomly and I haven't found a simple temp. fix yet. I will try the screenshot/snip tool next time to see if it makes it go away.

    This is how to lose people to "Google Chrome" I guess.

    Doing a great job MS, keep it up.

    you dont necessarily have to use a screenshot tool, I find that switching windows/going to desktop and back (basically unfocusing edge and going back to it) fixes the issue. screenshot tools work because edge becomes unfocused, but you do you.

    Let me lay out the specifics for the "tech specialists" here:

    This problem is browser-specific, supposedly Windows 11 only, has nothing to do with graphics cards or non-microsoft products (someone mentioned it happens in Office) and any recent edge update has the issue. Do not suggest people do anything outside of edge other than updating it, because the problem will not be solved from other apps. I don't understand which employee decided to add such an annoying feature

    I found that taking a screen shot, using Windows+Shift+S shortcut solves the problem somehow, it unblurs the browser. For some reason, I found that this happens to other Microsoft Office applications too but so far, only selecting the app to activate it unblurs it. No idea why this is happening though.
