A significant chunk of these bugs have something to do with Windows 10 drivers incompatibility. Still, Microsoft has acknowledged yet another glitch affecting Windows 10 May Update users. While the bug doesn’t block updates, it causes external display issues in laptops and tablets.
Workaround for the Windows 10 2004 drawing app problem
The bug affects Windows 10 2004 devices that have a built-in display, for example a laptop. So, if you connect your laptop or tablet to an external monitor that’s set to mirror the built-in display, both monitors will have a flickering problem. More so, the external display goes dark if you try drawing in any Office app. The bug affects MS Word, Whiteboard, and other applications that support drawing. Additionally, a quick review in Device Manager shows a warning sign next to your graphics controller. There’s good news for affected users: You can fix the issue by simply restarting your Windows 10 machine. Plus, Microsoft said that it’s working to fix the issue. The only not-so-optimistic news coming out of that announcement is that only a future version of Windows 10 can address the bug. While the external display problem doesn’t prevent users from using their Windows 10 PCs, it seems too severe to fix with a minor update.
