    Taskbar icons blurry/low resolution unless I open the app.


    Hi,I am using Windows 11, and the icons on my taskbar are blurry/ low res until I open the app, after which the icons come back to full resolution. It stays sharp until I lock my laptop and sign back in, as the icons will become blurry again. And this isn't just Windows Store apps, but desktop apps that I have pinned as well.

    Icons in taskbar become blurry over time

    Hi Daniel,

    The concern you have encountered may be due to a corrupted file or a misconfigured setting.

    In this case, we suggest you change to a higher resolution. We also recommend you run System File Check. To do this, simply follow the steps provided by
    SpiritX MS MVP on this
    link    .

    If you require any further information, feel free to let us know.

    Regards.

    Taskbar icons blurry/low resolution unless I open the app.

    Some icons appear to be blurry in the system tray(taskbar)

    Hello guys...

    i recently bought my laptop its Acer Nitro 5 AN515-43

    i basically use it for gaming...

    now the problem is that some icons in my taskbar are blurry(specially the nvidia control panel and geforce tray icons)

    Why is this happening?

    i have updated all the drivers to latest version,... and everything else is up to date and the resolution is set to maximum... nothing else appears to be blurry except this 2 icons in the taskbar, i also tried clean type feature but it didnt helped.

    please suggest a way to get rid of it..
