Black Box Appears on Windows 11 Desktop

[Cornerstone]

Hi All,

I'm having an issue ever since upgrading to Windows 11. When I first power on from a shut down state and login to Windows 11, after about 10 seconds or so the screen will flash black for a second then show the desktop again but there will be a black rectangle near the centre of the screen. The only way to get rid of it seems to be logging out and then back in again.

I am using a Ryzen 5 5600G chip with integrated graphics, no dedicated GPU. Not sure if this would affect it.

Thanks in advance!

I'm having the exact same issue, did you fix it by any chance? If you did then please tell me.

No luck yet... are you running the same setup as me with the CPU and win 11? I'm using a Dell 1440p monitor via DP.

I had (and sometimes still have) a box showing up after a restart telling me to download the latest software from Microsoft and including a link. The link leads nowhere, and typing in the information in a browser (Edge) gets me nothing. I've finally decided to just live with it after MS support couldn't permanently fix it. (I don't get the black rectangle you describe.)

Go to Task Manager, Scroll to very near the bottom .Find Windows Explorer. Click on it then Restart in bottom right corner

I think it's a problem with windows updating the amd drivers to an old version, every time the black box appears the driver version is old or incompatible, I tried everything to make windows not update drivers... nothing works. dogshit OS

Hey, if you have Microsoft teams open, try closing it, and check if that's the issue, because it was for me.
