Summary of the issue you are facing:

Windows Desktop Client UX Problems (See attached animated gif): Client window only updates on resize. Normal interaction currently not possible :sleepy_face:

Steps to replicate it (hint: details matter!)

  1. Just open windows desktop client to create/edit shares via context menu

  2. If we click on UX elements, nothing happens - UX changes only on client window resize :face_without_mouth:
