Problem description: This has happened a couple of times and I'm not sure what the hell is wrong. With a couple of games there are window popups I can't interact with. It's like they are an image I can't X out of. I have to force-close the "launcher" programs through task manager.

Its the windows that look like this:

The OK button may as well not be there and the red X changes colour on mouseover and press but doesnt close it. It's happened in multiple programs so far (FFXIV ARR and Fallout 3 launcher).

I'm thinking some kind of framework probably needs to be reinstalled but Ill be damned if I know which one.


EDIT: Just to be clear, the message in the window is unrelated, I just want to press OK and try a different password, but I can't press OK.

EDIT2: Here is an image of the other window that wont work properly when it's real, for completeness, I can't select/change any of the dropdowns or buttons, it's like it's an image (this is an actual image, I realise the irony):


Attempted fixes: I've tried googling a solution but apparently I can't manage to phrase it in a way that doesn't get me a load of unrelated garbage

Recent changes: The drive was recently reflashed
