Desktop constantly refreshing

Hi, some ideas here:
Windows 10 Taskbar and Desktop Constantly Refreshing - Microsoft Community
BEST FIX: Stop Windows 10 Taskbar and Desktop Refreshing - Appuals.com

Another observation:
Windows 10 Desktop Constant Refresh: how can I stop the constant refreshing? - Windows Central Forums
...had the constant refresh problem
Fixed it thus: First switching off WiFi, then right click on start button, select the shutdown sign off and select shutdown
Then boot pc as normal - leave to do all its stuff - suggest about a couple of minutes - switch wifi back on and all was as it should be.

Another:
Uninstall IDT Audio (if installed).

System Restore can be unreliable. Restore now doesn't work for me with a particular message which has rarely been reported.

Having read the above, if no help, then basics:
a. Does it happen in Safe Mode?
b. Does it happen after a clean boot?

 

Windows 10 Taskbar and Desktop Constantly Refreshing

Hi,

I appreciate if you could answer few questions to narrow down to the issue.

• 
  What is the make and model of the computer?
  
• 
  What does it exactly means when you say that the taskbar constantly refresh?
  
• 
  Did you receive any error message?
  
• 
  Did you install any third party security application?
  

This issue may arise due to corruptions in Windows components or due to third party security application.

As an initial troubleshooting step, I suggest you to check if you are able to start the computer in Safe mode.

If the issue does not persists in Safe mode, place the computer in a clean boot state.

A clean boot is performed to start Windows by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This helps eliminate software conflicts that occur when you install a program or an update or when you run a program in Windows 8.1, Windows 8, Windows
7, or Windows Vista. You may also troubleshoot or determine what conflict is causing the problem by performing a clean boot.
