Hello,
first try to reboot your computer.
If that doesn't help, open Factorio properties in Steam Library and set launch options to

Code: Select all

--dxgi-blit-model

Further info: it seems to happen if I change Windows 10 focus to another window while Factorio is doing its loading and checking.
