I often run the CC app to update my apps, but the app keeps flickering and flashing like crazy the whole time. It becomes extremely difficult to click on buttons. I'm not sure how to fix it. Any help is appreciated.

update your graphics' drivers to current studio (not gamer) versions.

That's a GPU issue. Ensure that your graphics card, drivers & video display are compatible with your apps.

Windows 11 (64-bit) versions 24H2, 23H2; Windows 10 versions 22H2, 21H2;
MacOS 15 (Sequoia), 14.7 (Sonoma), 13.6.7 (Ventura).
