I am running Windows 10 - 64 bit.
With only one monitor.
The only program that was in the background was firefox. (IDK if it matters)
Graphics card : GeForce 9400 GT
Ram: 8 GB
CPU: I5 2400 @ 3. 10 GHz 3. 40Ghz
Long story short I still haven't figured it out yet.
I had it in multiple games in different situations. I actively tried to glitch the windows but had mixed success. Reloading past saves fixes the bug , but if you save with it, it will stay the same as before.
Only thing I know for sure is that if you right click the white window and click on the option to move ( idk if its a specific thing only on windows 10 I never used that before ) the mouse will jump in the top left of the screen but if i do the same thing on a window that works it will jump on the middle of the top bar (the one with the minimize maximize and close options the standard one)
If you ask me its like the window doesn't exist. Also if you move a window outside of the monitor and close it and reopen it( and if it reopens outside the monitor), the window will be partially white (only the part that is outside the monitor ) that is why I think the window somehow doesn't open.
It appeared in multiple games:
- game 1 only the Economic window , no apparent reason (no errors or big lag spikes or anything like that), last thing i did was close some tabs.
- I reloaded the original game that came preinstaled I tried opening a bunch of tabs and closing them as fast as possible after I did some random game turns and while making random game turns
the economy window got bugged.
- game 2 only the Fleet Organization , same as above, but I forgot to put a tractor beam on a ship so I unlocked it and modified it then made a new fleet order ( still didn't get errors or anything like that ) then when i reopened it , it didn't work (it became white).
- I reloaded the game 2 and everything was fine but I got the same thing, but now for the System View , here I wanted to open System View but I clicked the Open Galactic Map button since they look similar, then immediately clicked left on the correct button and nothing happened, and the window was now not appearing ,and white when I was searching for it on the window bar.
- I reloaded game 2 and started to click tons of tabs and close them to see if it was this that caused it, it did not happen again, I continued playing and I hit the bug again, now I had the economy window open and I minimized it and forgot about it , I started to design an engine and a ship then when I wanted to look at my shipyards it the economy window was buged agian. BUT the one that was open was still working it still displayed and the buttons worked! It was only when I was trying to open a new one that it didn't work.
- I started a new game ( game 3) and started playing , saving when I was sure there where no white windows, after sometime I wanted to look at the Event Log and after I closed it I saw a small amount of lag ( so tiny I ignored it ) then when I tried again later it was buged. I tried opening other windows and I got another one buged I had 2 windows buged in the same game (the Event Log one and I think the Medals one).
IDK what to make of this thats why I wrote everything down that I remembered. Sorry if its long and sorry for bad english if there is any. Ask if you don't understand something.
I was going to say that: "My opinion is that it happens when you open tabs to fast or close them" but during writing this , it happened again to the economy window, I didn't even do anything for like 20 min since I took a break, so to my it seams random now. I hope this helps.
EDIT: I did close them using the taskbar from time to time, that would explain why it was inconsistent when testing.
