    Weird flashing / blinking (?) on my screen


    So I am not sure why, but that issue occured since i did input some commands in powershell given from a youtube video. The issue i have is that i have sometimes some weird blinking. It looks like that in the following imgur link: https://imgur.com/a/bcqq9dX .
    I honestly got no clue why it happens.

    The powershell commands i used were from this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N98kgpBa2-E

    :)

    Blinking and Flashing

    By the time I got your email the blinking/flashing had stopped. But then, a few days later there was another update performed and the blinking/flashing started again .I tried the methods you listed above but to no avail. The blinking/flashing continues.
    The worst part is the drop-down menus on my page disappear before I can use them. Should I just go back to Windows 8?

    Hi,

    Thank you for your interest in Windows 10.

    Blinking screen issue is usually caused due to Video card drivers.

    Follow the steps to update the Display driver:

    • Right-click on the Display Adapter listed and click on ‘Update Driver Software’.
    • Select the option to automatically search for the updated driver software.
    • Restart the computer after its updated and verify.
    Also try to access the computer manufacturer's website and download the latest display drivers for your computer and install the same.

    If issue still persists, I suggest you to Uninstall and reinstall the Display driver and check if it works for you.
    Refer to the steps below:

    Follow the steps to uninstall the Display driver:

    • Press Windows Key + X key and click Device Manager.
    • Expand ‘Display Adapters’.
