When opening the Top Streams directory or a game directory, there are graphical artifacts (white squares) once it is loaded. The artifacts eventually go away as you scroll or move mouse. I can reproduce this issue about 90% of the time usually by going from my followed streams to the Top Streams directory. There are errors in the debug log when it happens. This issue seems to have been introduced in the latest version as I have tested v1.11.0 and can’t reproduce.

Apologies for the late update. I’ve updated to the latest version and played around with it for a couple days now. I am no longer experiencing this issue.

May we have the setting in graphical interface when «enable hidden settings» mark is active?

--disable-gpu is a Chromium launch parameter, not something that can be set during runtime. You’ll have to add this to your launcher. Packaged applications store launchers in /usr/share/applications and you can copy those to ~/.local/share/applications and modify them. There you can add --disable-gpu to the Exec field.

NW.js 0.57.0 has been released yesterday with the latest Chromium 94 version: https://nwjs.io/blog/v0.57.0/

I had already tried updating to NW.js 0.56.0, but the Windows builds were broken and there hadn’t been a bugfix release for some reason. cab9e21488f3d7069dc3e2eaee18dcb3fa51c7ff

I will check 0.57.0 tomorrow when I have the time. If you want to try it for yourself, change the NW.js version string in src/config/main.json and build the application according to the section described in CONTRIBUTING.md.
