In ubuntu20.04.4, this doesn't happen

[Launchpad Janitor (janitor)]

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

[akshay (akshaybabloo)]

I have the same issue, plus I couldn't share resource between the VMWare and Windows. I had to update vmware-tools-desktop. The rendering did not fix though.

[andru shevchenko (jjjbenderjjj)]

Maybe and just maybe, this is the issue of the desktop environment Ubuntu 22.04 (which I use on VM). I have solved this `inconvenience` by installing the [xubuntu-desktop]

sudo apt install xubuntu-desktop

And after the reboot, I switched it [Xfce session], and that's it.
