White flash when un-minimizing, maximizing, or opening applications

Using dark mode on windows, if unminimizing file explorer it flashes white.

If I unminimize Notepad++, it flashes white.

Easier to see when 'Minimize/Maximize animations' are set to 'off'

There's a quarter-half second of a blindingly white app then back to whatever color scheme it should actually have.

VStudio, Command Prompt, and a few other apps do not suffer from this issue.

All browsers (including chrome), Notepad++, File explorer, etc. suffer from this.

Anyway to get this fixed? Even via hacky solution would be great.

Maybe some third-party apps that can fix this? >.>

Getting severe eye strain due to this bs.......

 

File Explorer Does Not Minimize

This is weird. My File Explorer will no longer minimize without locking up.

Specifically, if I open File Explorer it opens up fine. If I click on the minimize button the window itself will minimize like expected however the list of files within that window will all flash/blink rapidly and the window will get stuck in the minimized
state. It will no longer open or close when I press the "X" the "x" will turn red and it will say "not Responding" and stick for a minute and then the box closes.

File Explorer used to minimize correctly for years until the update last week.

Can anybody help...please...Anybody...
