how to find the app causing the blinking screen.

Hi, 

I have tried all the ways I can find what is causing my screen to blink with I open pdf or docs.  My task manager does not blink.   The last suggestion was to find an app that is causing this to happen.   I have read the directions many times and tried to find the app many times but can not.

I need someone to give me better directions to find the app.  I go to the apps and there is nothing there to suggest which app it could be.

thank you

I would suggest you refer to the below steps and check if it helps to resolve the issue.

Solution 1. Perform a clean boot to determine what application is causing the problem.

Solution 2. Do a repair install of Windows 10 with an in-place upgrade.

Summary

If your Windows 10 installation is demonstrating unusual behavior such as built-in apps not working or launching, you can perform a repair upgrade to fix the problem. A repair upgrade is a process of installing Windows 10 over the existing installation of Windows 10 on your hard disk, using Windows 10 installation media. Performing this can repair broken operating system files while preserving your personal files, settings and installed applications.

You may try following these steps. Check this video tutorial for detailed instructions.
