Windows build number

Other Software

No response

Steps to reproduce

  1. Open WT
  2. Open setting.
  3. Click any drop down menu

Expected Behavior

A proper looking drop down menu is shown.

Actual Behavior

Only the shadow of the drop down menu is showing, which is pretty dark.

Furthermore, if you alt+tab to another window when drop down menu is open, the shadow is stuck on your screen.

The title is kinda hard to explain so let me show it in a GIF:
30fps

Note: sometimes the drop down menu just refused to show up. But I haven't found a good STR.
