Desktop icons flicker for one second when closing Microsoft Edge
Hello, I would like to report a regression affecting Microsoft Edge on Windows 10.
Starting with version 145.0.3800.70, and still present in the current stable version 145.0.3800.82, closing the Edge window causes the desktop icons to flicker for about one second, as if the desktop is being refreshed.
This issue occurs only on Windows 10.
On Windows 11, the same versions of Edge do not produce this behavior.
The flicker happens consistently every time Edge is closed, and it does not occur with any other application.
