    Black Tooltip Boxes Under Minimize/Maximize/Close


    On Windows 10 I have black boxes that appear when I hover over the minimize/maximize/close buttons for most apps.I researched the forums and haven't found any concrete solution for this. My graphics driver is the latest available. I have run sfc /scannow.Nothing seems to permit the tooltips to render properly.

    :)

    Tooltips not showing, showing black box instead

    When I hover over Min, Max and Close for any program like IE, Outlook, Skype, Windows Explorer. The tooltips are black boxes. It normally shows a text box saying Minimize, Maximize or Close. I am getting black boxes instead...

    Its almost like it is trying but cannot do it for some reason.

    I cant find much information about this doing a Google Search... I thought maybe a driver? Windows update?

    Any ideas

    Windows update - KB3199986 issues - Restore Up & Maximize icon's mouse click & tooltip display issue

    Windows 10 update (KB3199986) issue- Restore Up & Maximize icon's tooltip and mouse click is not working properly when window is minimized.

    Restore Up icon: When mouse is pointed, it shows tooltip of Maximize and also clicks Maximize icon when clicked on Restore icon.

    Maximize icon: It shows tooltip of Close icon and clicks close icon when clicked on Maximize icon.

    Close icon: tooltip & mouse click are working fine.

    Windows system menu is working fine for Restore/Maximize and close.

    Application is working as expected on another Windows 10 machine without KB3199986 update.

    The update KB3199986 is not reversible and I'm not sure how to fix this. Any help on this would be appreciated. Thanks
