Windows 10: Graphical glitches freeze text when scrolling or moving windows on some apps

Recently about a month ago I have encountered this weird error on certain apps where if im for example scrolling through the left side on File Explorer, the text will glitch out and freeze in screen. This also happened when moving windows around on GraphicsGale problem came around same time scrolling thing happened. I also tried resintalling Win 11 but even that did not help.

Weird graphical text editor glitch in a dual monitor setup on windows 10

My dearest superusers,

I have a very weird graphics 'glitch' for certain IDE's or editors, like TexStudio and Spyder. It happens that certain lines or words overlap with each other, and sometimes certain lines have different fontsizes even (not shown in next image)

Screenshot for one example of overlapping words:




It happens usually in my secondary monitor (LG Flatron E2350V), but if I remember correctly, it had appeared on my primary as well. My primary is just the one of my laptop (HP Pavilion - 14-al125nd). What I have noticed (from what I remember) is:

• When the problem appeared in Spyder in primary monitor, it was
  sometimes solved by saving the python file
  
• When the problem appeard in Spyder in secondary monitor, it was
  sometimes solved by maximizing the window.
  
• And at times none of the above methods worked for no monitor.
  
• When I drag one of the text environments (texStudio or Spyder) from monitor 1 to monitor 2, the text transitions into the glitched version.
  
• Also,some IDEs like Matlab, never experienced this problem. (And till now, I have never seen the problem elsewhere
  
• As far as I know, these two programs are the only ones where the glitch appeared.
  
• Lately, the problem does not appear in first monitor, but it still does in second one.
  

This suggests that the problem is time-varying and possibly also varies in its characteristcs.

To solve the problem, I've tried to:

• update to latests graphics drivers, both my integraded Intel card (HD
  Graphics 620), as well as my dedicated Nvdia GeFore 940MX card.
  
• Otherwise I've tried to search online but frankly, I do not really
  know the right search terms to find the same problem. Therefore I
  hope to find some answers or suggestions on this site!
  

Just to be clear, my question is what causes and/or what can potentially solve the problem?
Of course I do not know what information could be used/required to answer this question, so if there are any questions of additional details that I did not mention, please ask.

Sidenote: I am not sure whether my tags are correct either. Feedback is appreciated.

Custom Driver : Intel HD Graphics & ATI Combo (Alpha) - by nIGHTmAYOR

according to laptop support page they do list an old downloadable driver for intel for windows 7 , weather this is related to there being several variants of that laptop or this laptop has switchable graphics i may just suggest you reset the bios and see if things change , if yes you may be able to apply step 2 , if not then apply step 4 and call it today , you are still better off being on the high performance gpu .

Out of curiosity can you take a snap shot from Settings > System > Display. Scroll down and click the “Graphics Settings” ?
