Windows 10 Taskbar Icons Bouncing

Question

Hi,

 The icons (power, WiFi, Sound, and the little up arrow that shows more, but not the time/date or the notification icon) on the right end of my taskbar have been "bouncing". They spread apart for a split second, then get closer to the end of my taskbar (like they're all jumping away from and then falling back down tot he right side of my screen). I've just refreshed my computer (DELL INSPIRON 5567, 64 bit) like in the instructions [here][1] (which is redownloading windows, but not resetting, which wipes all the files) and it came back instantly.  
  This also may or may not be related, but when I go into SETTINGS>DISPLAY, the dropdown boxes for "Display Resolution" and "Display Orientation" are flickering (the words disappearing and the boxes becoming gray) very quickly, making it hard to change anything as the box flickers closed before I can click any of the options. The flickering of the dropdown boxes seems to happen in the same instant as the spreading out of the taskbar icons (there's a half second between each jump/flicker).  

What should I do? Do I need to reset my computer (like in that link)?

Cheers

Here's a photo of what I'm talking about (caught between flickers). Unfortunately it doesn't show the problem, but I can't upload video files:

I am facing the exact same issue.

it got resolved today after I installed the latest update but resumed after few hours.
None of the above seems to be working I have tried this.

to add to this further the device manager seems to be refreshing contantly when you open it.

Hi,
You don't have to reset this PC in the beginning. Some steps below may help you troubleshoot.

1. CTRL+SHIFT+ESC to start Task Manager
   Locate Windows Explorer in Processes tab and kill it
   Now at the top File > Run new task > Put explorer.exe and Enter
2. Go to the manufacturer's website to download and install your graphics driver。
3. Perform a clean boot and uninstall your security software temporarily.

4. Create a new user account to log on. Check if it works fine.
   If the issue still insists, please check for update. If any security update could be found, installing firstly. It will update the system files.
   Then open CMD window, run the command below:
   sfc /scannow
   DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth
   Hope this helps and please help to accept as Answer if the response is useful.
