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

Locked Question. This question was migrated from the Microsoft Support Community. You can vote on whether it's helpful, but you can't add comments or replies or follow the question.
Worked for a little while, then stopped working. Nothing is going to fix this until Microsoft comes up with a viable update. I seriously suggest using a different browser in the meantime.
Trying this tomorrow and crossing fingers it works. Thanks for the suggestion.
Looking at the timeline of when this started, it appears to correlate with the 117.0.2045.31 release on September 15th, 2023. Per the Edge release notes (Microsoft Edge release notes for Stable Channel | Microsoft Learn) They added Microsoft Edge for Business for unmanaged Windows devices.
A co-worker and I were troubleshooting this and after I forced updated my Edge browser I've not experienced it again (yet...). The update took me to 117.0.2045.36. I suspect something may have been triggering the blur with the introduction of the unmanaged device capability with Edge for Business. We both have non-managed BYOD Windows 11 devices. I've also experienced this at home on my personal system (also Windows 11). We checked various corporate machines (only Windows 10) and have not encountered it on any of those systems. Additionally, inquiring with some other co-workers with Win 11 BYOD systems...they have not encountered this. However, they were on an older build of Microsoft Edge (116.0.1938.81) .
So, check if you are a.) Windows 11 22H2 or later and b.) running 117.0.2045.31. If so, force Edge to update and see if the issue goes away.
EDIT 1: Well.....it blurred once again. So, issue still present.
In Edge Settings, System and performance, I turned off Efficiency mode, Improve you PC gaming experience, and Save resources with sleeping tabs. The tabs still blur after a while, but more reliably clear when I click on the page. I don't know if this fix will last.
I use Bitwarden as my password manager. In Firefox, Bitwarden hangs when you try to log in. I don't trust Chrome (security sucks). If you have to try a different browser (at least until MS gets their **** together and fixes this issue), Brave seems to work well and it's more secure.
I am experiencing the same issue. It is new this week, and it is only happening in Microsoft Edge. The behavior appears random and unconnected to hardware on my machine.
