same thing occurs on my PC on chromium edge, microsoft teams, visual studio installer.

the browser UI is fine in the beginning of the session, but on navigating to some specific pages like the Microsoft account homepage, causes UI to start becoming blurry. (some UI elements more blurrier than others).

SOLUTION TO PROBLEM: I solved this issue by DISABLING hardware acceleration.

It fixes the blurring, but disabling hardware acceleration is a guaranteed performance drop.

Our blur problem has supposedly been fixed in Chromium. I've tried >10 solutions posted on various forums and blogs, none of them have worked.

These include changes to command line boot arguments, text scaling, Win10 app scaling, countless edge:flag settings, display/graphics driver settings, and so on.

The cause seems to be some type of forced text scaling that we can't influence.

  TO ANYONE HAVING THIS PROBLEM:
  
  Disabling FXAA within Nvidia's control panel fixed the issue for me.

Tarunaditya yes disabling this fixed it for me too. I've had the same issue with some Chrome installs so it seems more of a Chromium issues rather than EdgeC.
