  1. Weird Outline in Settings?


    Hi!


    This is a question about my Windows 10 Enterprise Distribution that I'm using and currently, actively modifying.


    Could anyone please provide on insight on what this is and what triggers it to happen?


    Whenever I go into Windows Update on my normal PC, my cursor should be set up to where it automatically jumps into the narration box everytime like this:

    As far as I'm concerned, my main work PC, of which I run as an admin, is working fine, and this is normal, but on my other computer with fresh Windows 10 installed, sometimes when I bring settings up, the insertion point does not have the narration box selected, but instead, it creates a white boarderline around 'Check for Updates' and you can see an example of this in my next screenshot:

    I have been researching this for a few weeks but unfortunately, I haven't been able to set the new one up like my home PC and eliminate this problem for happening. As I'm really interested in customizing the GUI alot, I was wondering if anyone could provide an explanation as to what instigates this behavior so that you can help me get back on track?


    Of the following, here are some of the steps I have taken to gather some information.


    -Ran SFC, CHKDSK, DISM and Error Checked Drives, everything has come up clean, I don't believe any corruption is present as both of these machines are relatively new, having been put up last month prior to this question.


    -Narrator has been turned off. I have read that this has something to do with Narrator, of which both have been turned off on either machine, unfortunately, that didn't give me much insight as to what triggered this.


    -Thank you kindly!

    :)

    Weird text outlining- Windows 10

    Hi,

    Before we proceed, I need more information to help you better.


    • What is the exact issue that you’re facing with Windows 10?

    • What exactly do you mean by weird text outlining?

    • Are you facing any issue with applications?
    In the screenshot, I am unable to see any weird outlining. But if you are seeing any issue with the display then I suggest you to try installing all the pending Windows Updates and check for the issue. If the issue still persists then try changing
    the resolution and check.

    Thanks and regards.

    • Type “Device Manager” in search box and press Enter.

    • Right click on the drivers for Display and Touchscreen and select Update.
