There is currently an ongoing isssue with Chromium/Electron rendering being almost-unusable with VRR. It was first reported almost a year ago. Microsoft doesn't care enough to fix it. But hey, at least you get Copilot so it can tell you what registry tweak you have to add to fix it yourself!

Isn't like the whole UI using Electron at this point?

Didn't they rewrite the start menu to electron?

Huh? I'm having no issues with vsCode, and while I haven't used Discord in ages I didn't have problems with it either. Both are electron. Got any links about these issues handy?

It's this one:

i have win 11 on one of my laptops and I saw this issue. I do a lot of alt-tabbing and it made me go crazy because almost every time that happened, i'd have to minimize my browser and open it again or the webpage (and the browser ui) wouldn't render correctly.
