A recent issue has been reported where users on Windows 11, version 24H2, are encountering problems with graphical user interface elements becoming distorted or unresponsive. This impacts a range of applications including Office 365 and remote desktop management tools, leading to white-out text issues and general instability in the UI rendering process. The problem seems to be linked to GDI+ (Graphics Device Interface Plus), an essential component for drawing graphics on screen and printer under Windows. Users report seeing .NET errors related to GDI+, indicating a potential regression or bug within this critical API layer. Affected systems include both freshly installed and upgraded machines, ruling out hardware-specific issues as the sole cause. Troubleshooting steps such as restarting applications offer temporary relief but do not resolve the underlying issue. This situation has left many users searching for solutions online without success.
Third-party reports suggest that similar complaints are emerging in community forums and social media platforms, indicating a widespread problem rather than isolated incidents. Users from various backgrounds and hardware configurations are encountering the same issues, underscoring the need for urgent attention from Microsoft. Experts recommend downgrading to previous stable versions of Windows 11 as an interim solution until official patches are released.
