Blurred window bug

Hey, guys.

 

I created an account here to report a bug that I came across a couple times. I don't know what or if I did something to encounter it, but sometimes a blurred window appears on top of everything in my desktop.

 

 

 

 

When it is there, I can't get rid of it by any means. I can't alt+f4 it, can't drag it, actually if I right click the thing it is like if I was right clicking the desktop and the options show up unblurred. Any programs that I open will go behind this blur wall, I can drag them and all. Nothing removes it but a restart. Sometimes the blur takes the whole screen, unlike the one in screenshot.

 

Has anyone seen this as well? And if so, is there a solution to remove it? I tried looking for other people having the same bug but I haven't found anything yet.

 

Thanks everyone in advance.

    Try uninstall your graphic card driver and see if the problem persist?
