Hello, my issue is, when after i close any game or any fullscreen application my taskbar icons (close to the clock) it becomes blurry and some disappear...

It should look like this...

After i close a game it turns into blurry icons and some disappear, at this stage is there other bug, it not let me take any PrintScreen, when i try to send the picture to the Paint it becomes a black picture, cant take any desktop picture or fix the blurry icon, unless i reboot computer...

Differences between upgrades:

1709 the issue is almost the same, but its only on the blurry icons.

1803 there are 3 issues, the blurry icons, a few disappear and cant take desktop PrintScreen

I hope you Devs can tell something about it...

PS: This is not important since the update is not released yet, but there is other issue that i find in 1803 with AMD driver, the latest 18.3.4 the system wount boot, it stays stuck on Windows logo, 18.3.3 and older updates works like a charm

PS2: The issue is not on my end, the issue is presented on 7 machines with random hardwares.

    I'm having this exact same issue and it's been driving me nuts. Please fix this Microsoft, it was fine before the most recent update.

    Hi again, i manage to workaround the paint and snipping with bandican, i just open the app, start recording and now is working again ( its temporary)

    here i can show the taskbar bug

    As you can see, there is some blurry icons (it can get worst) and the hidden feature it has a strage aspect and only show 3 on 3 open app... as you can see there are 12 app on there, if i open one or two app, it dont show them, but if i open 3 more and count as 15 apps, some times the hidden feature it shows them.

    This one is the all open app that i have

    I dont what much i can tell about this issue, but is annoying, hope you guys can do something about it since is presented on older versions of Windows 10, just dont remenber  if was presented in the Anniversary update or the Creators update, but i think not, it started on the Fall Creator update.

    PS: The screenshoot that i post when i open the topic, its everything ok on there, it was taken when i restart the pc, the bug happend after i close any game or any fullscreen app (do not happend with browser fullscreen, like youtube), the bug stays there untill the next reboot.

    This is just a terrible joke, AGAIN, right!? I can name over 10 bugs like this, which are PRESENT SINCE BETA of Windows 10, AND NONE OF THESE bugs GET EVER FIXED.

    A laptop with two GPUs and 4k display, one Intel one Nvidia, is totally useless, because if you play a game in 1080, and switch back to 4k desktop, half the icons of systray are GONE, and you have to reboot Windows to fix it.

    This forum is totally useless btw, because no one from MS looks into it, especially not devs. It is a community forum, no one who works at MS looks into this damn forum.

    There need to be people who have access to MS, who can submit bugs reported here directly, and not just "oh use the awesome Windows 10 feedback hub app", WHICH IS TOTALLY GARBAGE AND ALSO USELESS, because it is just spammed by people who have no idea, what a real bug is.
