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

    On AMD whatever driver is used, the issue is still there, (if you can even use them, when are not broken, like 18.4.1 or 18.5.1) even if the driver is not installed RX580 GPU

    On Nvidia is the same... GTX 1070 GPU

    On 14 machines the issue is there and is the same, so is not hardware or firmware related

    All OS´s are Up-to-date.

    Hi Hotrith,

    Thank you for the feedback. We are currently investigating the on the issue. In order for me to be able to have it added on the investigation that we're conducting regarding this issue. May I know what is the version of your AMD Radeon RX580?

    I'll be waiting for your response.

    Just an update, that GPU/driver may be a factor in this. I have a new Dell OptiPlex 7050 with integrated Intel HD 630 graphics at my house, which I'm configuring for a friend. I have it connected to the same UHD display that my "problem" PC uses (just moved the DP cable to this new PC), and so far I have not been able to reproduce the problem, on Windows 10 1803 17134.81.

    Perhaps it has something to do with the quantity of system tray icons, or which ones, so I'll continue to poke at it.

    Update: I was able to reproduce the problem on this PC, after playing Super Mega Baseball at 1920x1080.

    Here is the "after" system tray screenshot:
