Broken rendering after updated to 1.66.0

See original GitHub issue

Issue Type: Bug

Not sure how to reproduce, but my VS Code instance becomes broken after updated to 1.66.0.

Texts are rendered in strange way. All of the menu, side bar, text editor, issue reporter and other components are affected.

I think I solved my issue. Since this only happens when enabling GPU acceleration, I thought it might be related to NVIDIA control panel settings I changed. Turns out, long time ago I followed some Youtube video to enable Multi-Frame Sampled Antialiasing (MFAA). Once restore to the default Off, the issue is gone. Those who still has this problem could try restoring NVIDIA settings to default.

Continuing the merged https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/issues/147982, here:

  • Changed graphics card.
  • Updated driver.

Still the same fog.

Appending --disable-gpu in the shortcut’s “Target” field fixes it.
