I Was Just Testing Some Stuff Out in Minecraft, When I Opened OBS Studios to Record a Video And My Computer Blacked Out for About 10 Seconds and My Open Window Running Minecraft Became The Old Windows 7 Window Frame.

Can Anyone explain what happened?

Windows for home | Windows 11 | Display and graphics

    Sumit is correct. Windows is basically built on top of all the years earlier regardless of what Microsoft may say as they did not recreate all of Windows from scratch or stop using older styled ways lol.

    It could technically look like MS DOS at some point too :)

    Not really anything to think about but its possible that your computer had a crash. That could be from a Windows bug or it could be that your Windows installation or computer has an issue.

    You can look in Windows reliability history or wherever to see if something happened.

    Hi Zack,

    I am Sumit here to assist you with this question.

    Windows 11 basically has bits of old code inside it - including Windows 7. It is probably a glitch, nothing else.

    If it happens again let me know.
