Where when you hover over a taskbar icon and them move the mouse away the highlight stays (btw this glitch happens at random, happened after 2 days of testing the build):

Updated: To include the other picture in original post

Notice where the pointer is and that the highlight over media player remains as if the mouse is hovering over that icon:

I'm really not sure if that's a bug. It just seems like it's there as intended. It even does the same thing to active application in the taskbar. Hover the mouse over it, it highlights, and still stays highlighted even if you move it away. If I recall, it's been reported since Beta, and seems that it's meant to work that way.

No, this is definitely not how it's intended. Normally if you move away, the highlight disappears (as it should). However this broken behaviour does randomly pop up, happened once after 2 days of running 16385. Needs restart to make it go away. Also, it happens without warning, nothing crashed before it did that.

The problem is you said it happens at "random", which makes any sort of debugging difficult. If you can find a specific set of steps to replicate the bug then it's more likely to be fixed sooner.

Gotta be your PC. No issues here on three different computers.

As I said, it happens infrequently and seemingly at random. I have seen this bug reported since beta and have experienced it myself a number of times in older builds. Just surprised it is still there in this build.

Happens for me too. You have to hover you mouse over an icon, and then move it off really fast. I'm using build 7201.

Okay. THAT happens. Moving the mouse fast enough away does take away the highlighting, but moving it away slow enough, will definitely keep any task bar item highlighted.

I've had this happen too. I've also in every build I've used had some taskbar flickering with the icons also flashing.

Both only happened once a few hours after the installation and seemingly solved itself so it is in't too much of a problem for me.

It happens here too on 7600.16385 x64 and 7100 x64. Just slowly hovering and quickly moving the cursor causes it to show up as if it were hovered on. I'll try to put up a video later on.

Are you talking about this?

That and the 2 vertical lines which represent hover state of the icon which under normal behaviour disappears after you move away the mouse pointer from the taskbar. Whereas, during the glitch the icon remains highlighted even when the pointer is no longer hovering over that icon.

    • Anthropic launches Claude Fable 5, a state-of-the-art AI model that beats OpenAI's GPT-5.5 by Pradeep Viswanathan Back in April, Anthropic announced Claude Mythos Preview, a frontier model with state-of-the-art coding capabilities. Due to the cybersecurity implications that would occur due to the availability of such a powerful model, Anthropic made it available to only a select set of companies around the world. The company's plan was to prepare appropriate guardrails before releasing such a powerful model to everyone. Now, after nearly two months, Anthropic announced Claude Fable 5, its most capable AI model yet for general users. The company also announced Claude Mythos 5, the same underlying model as Fable 5, but with safeguards lifted, making it more suitable for selected cybersecurity and biology use cases. Claude Fable 5 sits a tier above its Opus models and it beats most other generally available models across areas including software engineering, knowledge work, vision, scientific research, and long-running autonomous tasks. To prevent model misuse, when Claude Fable 5 detects certain requests related to cybersecurity, biology, chemistry, or model distillation, the request will be routed to the Claude Opus 4.8 model. Anthropic claims that these safeguards trigger in less than 5% of sessions on average. However, for large organizations working on critical software, Claude Mythos 5 can be availed through Project Glasswing. Later, Anthropic has plans to expand access through a broader trusted access program. As you can notice in the benchmarks above, Fable 5 and Mythos 5 are state-of-the-art on most key AI benchmarks and they are well ahead of OpenAI's frontier model, GPT-5.5. For example, Fable 5 is the new state-of-the-art model for vision tasks. Also, Mythos 5 has the strongest cybersecurity capabilities of any model in the world. Claude Fable 5 and Claude Mythos 5 are priced at $10 per million input tokens and $50 per million output tokens, which is less than half the price of Claude Mythos Preview. Another big change is that Anthropic is making a change to the way they handle business customer data for both Fable 5 and Mythos 5 models. The company will now require 30-day retention for all traffic on both first- and third-party surfaces. Anthropic promises that it won't use the data to train Claude models, instead it will use it against complex and novel attacks. Claude Fable 5 is available today on the Claude API and consumption-based Enterprise plans. It is also included at no extra cost for Pro, Max, Team, and seat-based Enterprise customers from today through June 22. After that, users on those plans will need usage credits to continue using Fable 5, unless Anthropic extends the included access window based on capacity. Developers can access Fable 5 through the Claude API using the claude-fable-5 model name.
