Text Blocks Disappear Randomly in Adobe InDesign

Since Indesign version 2025 all the time a whole textblock suddenly disappears. It still exists, but is not shown.  It happens in different situations: when i scroll, want to start typing, etc. I already switched of the gpu-modus, but that does not help.

I am using Windows 10 on a Imac 4K intel core I5.

    This is a known issue in InDesign 2026 and should be solved in 21.2 version. I am not sure why you see this in 2025 version

      Does it happen with only a particular file or any file? If a particular file then try to export it to IDML and then resave back as INDD
