HI Audacity Folk,

Just a quick heads up on screen flickering issues. I downloaded the latest version (2.4.2) recently on my Dell Optiplex 9020 aio. I am running Windows 10 on this rig and found that I was getting a lot of screen flicker when using Audacity (and only Audacity). Although still usable, the program was constantly flickering with images of my home screen and what actually looked a little like electrical interference. Through the process of deduction and elimination it appears it may have actually been caused by a conflict with Microsoft Edge. After much experimentation I found that by removing Edge as my browser and replacing it with Firefox all issues were resolved and I am back in the happy saddle with Audacity...
Hope this perhaps helps out for those experiencing similar screen issues...
