    Windows 11 has a gray box that is constantly there and moves if I resize windows or move them


    I updated to the latest windows 11 and I am running into a problem where you have a gray box in the background. This is what it looks likeI have tested to see if it was just program doing it but it does it with all windows and I think that it is a problem with a preview of window resize. I can not get it to go away even if I minimize it.

    :)
