    Hey,


    I am using Microsoft Teams on Windows 10, but the window The opened Microsoft Teams app is much darker than other apps. Oddly enough, this problem only occurs with certain apps For example Microsoft Teams or OpenVPN Connect. Other apps such as Microsoft Word are displayed as normal.

    Ok, this is really weird: As soon as I take a screenshot of my screen, the apps aren't greyed out anymore. That's why I took a picture of my monitor with my smartphone:

    Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

    Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

    • Open a new Explorer window.
    • Click View in the ribbon.
    • Click Options.
    • Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
    • Click OK
