Much appreciated for all the help, I'll get back to you as soon as I have more info for you. thanks again!

No, I missed rebuilding the search index, I'll do that now. checking programs through clean boot is going to take some time, as the issue doesn't manifest until after 2 or 3 days of use. if it doesn't occur I'll try re-enabling half and seeing what I can find, and narrow it down from there.

I'll try a clean install of the video drivers as well. And yeah, I'm somewhat familiar with what a clean boot does, I've never tried one before myself. I was mostly saying I'll have to stay in a clean boot environment for several days, as it takes 2-3 days before the issue appears. I tried...

Right, I've tried updating GPU drivers previously, or swapping out GPUs entirely, to no avail, but seems to make the most sense since it's a graphical bug. I just hopped back in from a chkdsk /f reboot, so will try this next. Unfortunately due to the given nature of the issue, it's gonna be a...

Howdy hey. Unfortunately, the issue does not seem to have been fixed by repairing the windows image and the SFC Scan. woke up this morning to a glitchy filepath and some other minor inconveniences. Edit: As of going to reboot the PC to fix this, on the windows login screen, the PC...

After about a days worth of use, the file path in windows explorer becomes glitched, rendering completely incorrectly and bringing in bits of other application icons, the clock, etc. When this happens, Copy/Paste functionality is lost from ShareX's screenshot utility. It also seems to break...

Swapped to an old GPU, which fixed other issues, but not this one it seems. Swapping to light theme also did not work. still puzzled as malware scans all come up clean.

I restarted to fix the issue, but next it happens I will. I assume you mean the "Light" rather than "Dark" Theme?

After a while, a white bar appears covering the windows file path and preventing the file path from being interacted with, as well as sluggish load times/crashing of the file explorer itself. The problem is usually fixed by a system reboot, but I'd like to get to the bottom of why this is...

Hi there, I was hoping someone here could help decipher my issue. A few weeks ago I upgraded my PC from windows 7 home premium 64 bit to windows 10 home premium 64 bit. At the time all was well, and I made sure to update my drivers to their windows 10 versions. Several days after that...
