Ah, the dreaded nuclear option! Not sure about moving to a peaceful land kind of feeling though. The system is fairly new, and I mostly just use it for 3D and related things. Anything else I do on my old computer. And also there is no guarantee that reinstalling windows will actually fix the issue. I knew asking this question was a long shot, but for now I can still live with it. Just have to be more careful during animation. I’ll definitely keep your suggestion in mind @dostovel , just in case it gets worse for some reason.
