    That $28 "Solve Analysis Problems" hit approved for me today thankfully. There was so much writing.

    I'm getting black boxes popping up on the lower right hand and sometimes left hand corners of OW when it is running. It's driving me bonkers. Anyone have any ideas? :emoji_thinking:

    Are you using the new OW or the old one? Although honestly I haven't ever seen that bug.

    Omg I know exactly what you're talking about! But the weird thing is that it happens to one of my two HF windows. Unfortunately, I have no idea what's causing it or how to fix it. It usually only starts happening if I leave Chrome up for a couple of days or more, though. At least we know it's not specifically OW or HF now, though. :emoji_thinking:

    I had it pop up randomly on the side of HC, but it didn't happen but one time. :-\

    Does it only show up for a second or do the black boxes stay around? I see them pop up when chrome has to reload a tab because I resize the window ect but it only lasts for a second or so.

    That started happening to me when I had to remove a stick of ram from my computer. Someday I'll download more ram and see if that fixes it.

    Hmmm, weird stuff. I'd say it's been happening for.. 3, maybe 4 weeks? It isn't right now, of course. As for the frequency, it's when HF does a scan, so every 2 seconds. But not every time.

    Yeah I only ever see it happen when I resize a window but I think I have more ram than most people here do. (24GB)

    It could be a memory leak issue with MTS or something causing it but it would take me forever to notice memory leaks with my setup lol. (I used to run the memory leak HF for a week ish at a time without any issues for shits and giggles)

    I found this from 2015. Do you think it's still relevant? :-\

    12gb here (and hmmm, finally have an idea for Prime Day) but usually at 50-60% system usage. More couldn't hurt, though.

    The only other guess I have is that I've changed a few Chrome flags, but I have no clue which ones anymore. ~_~ Now that I know it's not just me, I'm gonna try to get it to happen again and screencap it.

    Welp, I figured I had hardware accel off, but it's on. This seems like it's worth a shot:
    chrome://flags/#disable-slimming-paint
    Set to Enable.

    I would try it now, but I wanna wait 'til it starts happening again :emoji_sweat_smile:
