Question

PC leaving old icons "imprinted"

Apr 16, 2018 6:49AM PDT

Hello,

About a month ago, my pc began leaving imprints of old icons that come and go. It's started to get really annoying, so I figured I'd ask for help. Here are some pictures:

Desktop files (seperated from imprints): https://ibb.co/fZynU7
Desktop files (on top of imprints): https://ibb.co/gh9SU7
Taskbar imprints: https://ibb.co/hVnLhS

Any help is appreciated!

- It's the same in a new Windows account?
- It's the same on another monitor?
- It's the same if you boot from Linux?
The more you tell, the more clear the cause will be.
