Windows 10: Why do videos appear blacked out and I still hear the audio while I'm editing? HELP ME...

I was making a logo combo with the hidden Video Editor in the Photos app but when I placed the second logo in the storyboard, the first logo in the storyboard appeared blacked out when I played the video that I'm editing. I was trying to make solutions for this bug but unfortunately, the problem was still there.
