UPDATED DETAILS 11.12.25:   A new Windows 11 update to OS Build 26200.7171 or newer should provide a complete resolution to this situation.

 

If the text box has overlapping/distorted text:

  1. Drag over all of the text to highlight it.  
  2. Press Delete.
  3. Type the new text and click Apply.

Other Options:

  • Use the Backspace key to remove all of the text, then retype your text.
  • Move the mouse cursor out of the property window.
  • Click on another property tab.

This situation appears to have occurred following a recent Windows 11 update to 25H2 in October, 2025
