Glitch with windows button (and Notepad) after playing around with scale feature ...
I'll just let the picture do the talking. This is annoying. I come back to Windows, and this happens? Any idea on how to fix this? It started happening after I played around with the scale feature to see if there was a setting that'd enlarge everything just enough for me to more easily see things onscreen just a bit. After I put everything back to "normal," I noticed this (see the upper right button). This is present in File Explorer, but not other applications' windows (e.g., Vivaldi, Chrome). Also, see the other picture of Notepad. See the gap? This started happening, too. Anyone else see this before? Help, please. Thanks very much. P.S.: This is on 24H2.

Yep, that’s a known UI glitch in Windows 11 24H2—changing the display scale can mess up window rendering, especially in native apps like File Explorer and Notepad. Try logging out and back in, or set scale to a different value, reboot, then reset to your preferred scale. If that doesn’t help, a future update may patch it.
