Troubleshoot screen flickering in Windows 10, 11

Screen flickering in Windows 10 or 11 is usually caused by a display driver issue or incompatible app. To determine whether a display driver or app is causing the problem, check to see if Task Manager flickers. Then, based on that information, you’ll need to update, rollback, or uninstall your display driver or update or uninstall the app.

Check to see if Task Manager flickers

Press Ctrl Alt + Delete to open Task Manager. If you don’t see Task Manager after pressing Ctrl Alt + Delete, press Ctrl + Shift + Esc to open Task Manager.

  • If Task Manager flickers along with everything else on the screen, a display driver is probably causing the problem. In this scenario, see the Fix your display driver section.
  • If Task Manager doesn’t flicker while the rest of the screen is flickering, an incompatible app is probably causing the problem. In this scenario, see the Update or uninstall an incompatible app section.

If you’re having trouble seeing your screen properly, you may need to start your PC in safe mode to follow the steps below.

Fix your display driver

If Windows Update recently made updates to your device, roll back your display driver. Otherwise, try updating or uninstalling your display driver to fix the flickering or scrambling problem.

  5. Restart your device.

Notes:

  2. Select the arrow to expand Display adapters.
  3. Under Display Adapters, right-click the adapter, then select Update.

  2. Select the arrow to expand Display adapters.
  3. Under Display adapters, right-click the adapter, then select Properties.
  4. Select the Delete the driver software for this device check box, and then select OK.
  5. Restart your device and Windows will attempt to reinstall the driver.

Note: If you don’t see Delete the driver software for this device check box, make you started your PC in safe mode.

Update or uninstall an incompatible app
