I'm currently investigating f.lux, as it might be the reason this is happening. I've been using it for a very long time and in the past it didn't give me problems. But in July I updated to Windows 10 and later Anniversary... not using often fullscreen on my desktop PC (I usually watch movies from HTPC) I might not have noticed this before.

Activating f.lux "Safe Mode" seems to solve the problem. As it doesn't significantly impair f.lux performance or functionality, all should be good. In case it could help madshi understand, Safe Mode in f.lux does the following (per their FAQ):

1. It disables our layered window for compatibility with some older machines. 2. It disables all polling we normally do to ensure that we're the active color profile.
