Screen redraw issues have appeared on various Windows versions when custom scaling has been adjusted in the display settings. Have you adjusted the default scaling behavior at all? If so, can you try returning that to the default setting? Additionally, can you try adding the following options to your VMOPTIONS file? This can be found in the installation directory. 1: -Dsun.java2d.noddraw=true 2: -Dsun.java2d.d3d=false 3: -Dswing.useflipBufferStrategy=True 4: -Dsun.java2d.ddforcevram=true 5: -Dsun.java2d.ddblit=false You can add them in order until the issue disappears or add all of them at once.

I had this same problem and I think I fixed it by going to scaling options and selecting the "Use system DPI settings" checkbox. Keep in mind you gotta restart Burp for it to take effect

Hi Jack Thank you for updating the thread with a fix!

You bet! And one last note - It seems setting my screens back to a refresh rate of 60hz helped solve the issue as well.
