Windows 11 blur window bug
I just experienced this and I think it's related to the Windows 11 snap assist feature.
Whenever you drag an application to the top, bottom, or corners of a screen, a blurred overlay appears showing you the area it's being assigned to. I inadvertently experienced this when I locked my computer to walk away from it for a few minutes, blindly smashing the Win+L key (and likely other keys around it) until the screen locked. When I came back to my computer, the same blurred overlay appeared and I couldn't figure out how to get rid of it. Finally tried to move an application that was stuck behind it by alt+tabbing over to it and then pressing Win+right arrow to move it to a different screen. Once I did that, the blur disappeared.
Here's an example of the blur in action.
I am actually having the same issue with Windows 11, while I was using Chrome, a small window appears at the top left screen. When I pressed the windows + D, to minimize all the windows, the blurred screen also disappeared and after a while, I got that screen on the right side of the screen as can be seen clearly in the screenshot below.
So I was asking what should be the possible fix for that bug OR they are going to fix that through the windows update?
Windows_11 Blurred window pop-up Automatically
Found a fix. Go to Display in settings and change your screen to any resolution then revert it. I did a fairly small resolution just to be safe
- Thanks Avengersman, suggestion worked for me
Facing this issue on and off for the past year - honestly trying to grasp what they do that they can't fix something so simple and that this issue got past testing AvengersmanCan't really do that when the entire screen from top to bottom is blurred and you can't make out anything on the screen. . .
- Ah yeah that's true. It will work if you can see a portion of the screen as what happened to me earlier. We'll just have to hope that Microsoft catches wind of this issue soon
