Steps to reproduce

Unfortunately I can't suggest how to reproduce it. I've only ever seen it once (today) and I run this on 3 PCs.
I began closing all background apps and since PT was at the top of the System Tray, I closed it first and the white box went away.

✔️ Expected Behavior

Not a random, small, white, rectangular box roughly in the middle of monitor #1.

❌ Actual Behavior

A random, small, white, rectangular box roughly in the middle of monitor #1. ;)
I can tell you that the mouse cursor was rendering on top of the box, but any program windows were being obscured by the box.

Bot has indeed found a match. This issue can be closed as duplicate.

FWIW, I hadn't launched the Colour Picker, nor could I move the white box.
