Certain Glitchy Explorer Windows?
Good Day to the Windows Ten Forum Folks,
I recently updated from Windows 8.1 x64 home to Windows 10 x64 Home. Everything went smoothly except for one inconvenience which I was hoping you could help me resolve.
My problem is that recently in Windows 8.1 I was getting Glitchy Explorer Windows aka Windows that don't fully load unless I move them around the screen, I thought this was a program error and that the Windows 10 installation would fix the problem, however it didn't fix it.
Example of the issue: Screenshot by Lightshot It also happens when trying to download things in browsers and it asks me where I would like to save the file for downloading and when opening games that have a dialogue box before launching and other various Dialogue/Windows Explorer boxes (Such as Properties on Folders and Files etc).
I've tried a few basics as listed below:
- Updating Windows via Windows Update (Since I just got Windows 10, it's fully updated)
- Restarting Explorer via Task Manager (Numerous Times)
- Restarting my Computer (Numerous Times)
- Updating Drivers including my Nvidia Graphics Driver to 353.62
- Ran sfc /scannow (No Fix)
- Tried Googling the issue, but as I don't have an error code or really a specific name it's kind of hard to find anything helpful
Therefore, Nothing I've tried above has seemed to work, hence, I've turned here as a last resort. I've also noticed the issue to be more frequent since installing Windows 10 for whatever reason but don't think it's a specific Windows 10 issue as I noticed it with a few things in Windows 8.1 but not as many as I've seen in Windows 10.
Other Details:
- Basic Computer and Graphics Details: Screenshot by Lightshot (I don't think it's a graphics issue either)
- I just installed Windows 10 and was never on any Preview Versions
- I've always been on Windows 8 and 8.1
- Things like Start Menu, Wifi Lists, Action Center all load properly and are not glitchy as shown in the first screenshot with the Volume Mixer
I'd be grateful of any solutions or recommendations on how to fix this issue as it is an inconvenience for me to have to move almost every Dialogue Window around before I can see the contents of it. Also if you require more information on this don't hesitate to ask as if it is practical I will supply it to try and get a fix for this.
