Hi If you add the option -Dsun.java2d.d3d=false into the vmoptions file in your installation directory, does this help? If it does, you can create a user.vmoptions file in the same folder so that the setting does not get overwritten when Burp upgrades.

It didn't help. The issue is on a VM, but somehow disabling the "Accelerate 3D graphics" option fixed it, whats could be wrong?

Hi We have seen that this is an issue for some VMware users after an update was made on their side. One user in another forum post has listed these as potential workarounds: - Disabling the 'accelerate 3D graphics' option - Disable Glamor (set XWAYLAND_NO_GLAMOR=1 in /etc/environment, then reboot the system). - Add -Dsun.java2d.opengl=true to /Software/BurpSuitePro/user.vmoptions - user.vmoptions will be preserved even after future Burp software updates
