Same problem with 4k 600dpi 250% scaling, restart fixes this.

Same with 4K 150% scaling

EDIT: After restart it looks good.

This is a Windows bug; what version of Windows 10 are you on?

[alexweininger]

having same issue;

150% scaling
2560x1440

Windows 10
Version 1709
Build 16299.334

it fixes itself when moused over, but eventually breaks again

I believe the fix for this is in the upcoming Windows update. Let's monitor this one. (You can download third party 1803 ISOs and upgrade today or wait for Windows Update push.)

Still happens on 1803 when DPI is changed without logging out (RDP from different DPI clients or to differrent DPI hosts, changing resolutions with option to let Windows fix blurry apps turned on)

Unfortunately still an issue in 1809. Was only able to it on turning scaling down from 175% to 100% before signing out.

I can confirm, it still happens on 1803.

Funny, the Windows Defender Icon is also effected from the problem. Only a complete Windows restart fix the Windows Defender Icon on my computer.

OK:

Not OK:

Are there any updates on this? I noticed this blurred / not sharp Icon today with the newest version of EarTrumpet. None of the other icons (Windows or 3rd Party app) has this issue.
I'm on Win 10 Build18908 and have a 4K DIsplay with 125% scaling.

Please help us get more info, this should have been fixed completely in 2.1.2.0.

• Restart EarTrumpet to clear the log
• Go into Settings / General / About / Collect troubleshooting data and paste the log here
• Take a screenshot with the system audio icon for comparison and paste that here

Thanks

It's really not much - but you can see it and it's not looking good... And since the system icons are being used, there should be a way to make it look like the system one - or not?

[davuxcom]

Are you at 225% DPI?

(PC Settings / Display / Scale and layout)

[niklas389]

Oh crap, yeah it's 225% scaling!
Sorry

[riverar]

@niklas389 Following up, are you still seeing this issue?

[niklas389]

@riverar
Nope - it looks as good as the system icon now! Thanks (:
