I am having problems with blurry text in some programs, which is very annoying. When I focus the window, it does sharpen the text, but it is still not normal. The weird part is that some part is blurry, while the text below it is normal

Some text is blurry while the text below is normal

What can I do to fix this problem? I've tried DPI scaling in Windows properties, changing my scaling in both Windows and Nvidia, I've tried the "fix blurry text" option in Windows, I've tried resetting fonts. I've tried Cleartype. Nothing seems to work. Some programs like Chrome and Intellij are normal, while other have this problem (for example Visual Studio Code here or Github).

Note: It happens on both my 1080P screens and my 1440P screen

EDIT: As suggested, this thread appears to be similar, however, I have disabled intel HD graphics.

  1. Try updating graphic drivers
  2. There is something called clearType feature in Windows - try activating/deactivating it.

Actually this is caused by CMAA (conservative morphological anti aliasing) Feature In Intel's Intergreted GPUs. CMAA improves performance on cost of visual quality. It's not noticeable in games but definitely gives an eyesore in normal applications like visual studio and MS Store.

Here is the simple solution to it :-

Just Go to Intel HD Graphics Control Panel and disable CMAA (under 3D category)

  1. Intel hd graphics control panel

  2. Go to 3d rendering

  3. Disable CMAA

An alternative solution :-

Visual Studio Settings Disable Hardware acceleration in visual studio settings.

BEFORE :- SMUDGY BLURRED RENDERING

AFTER :- CLEAR RENDERING

You can clearly see the difference between rendering. The text in code editor is also sharp now !
