Diagnostic experiment for Windows on ARM / RTX Spark.

Initial user result: hidden mode did not eliminate the reported flicker. This is not a verified workaround. The real host window was hidden and JavaScript rAF continued at about 60 callbacks/s; those counters are not physical screen-refresh measurements.

Download and extract the complete win-x64 ZIP. Run Start hidden.vbs for hidden mode, or SparkRefreshLab.exe for the initially stopped control window. Stop/exit from the tray menu. This x64 host was tested on the affected ARM64 system; it is not a native ARM64 build. No autostart or system/driver-setting changes.

Finite no-paint self-test verified actual hidden/visible states, stopping and browser-process exit. A separate user comparison of this executable in visible/covered modes has not been performed.
