Description xxxpascadali 2022-05-25 08:18:46 UTC

every time I take a screenshot using flameshot , it doesn't take a screenshot for my immediate screen but for an activity, I have been doing 30 mins ago. I thought at first that the problem was because of flame shot, so I installed shutter but faced the same problem until I used this command:-
kwin_x11 --replace

OBSERVED RESULT
It was fixed temporarily but after a few minutes, I have to use ctrl+c which makes pc unusable unless  I do it again, but the ability to take the screenshot is fixed for a few minutes again,
Also, this command makes my pc feel so much heavier

KWin isn't responsible for screenshots on X11; if you still experience this bug, please report it to your GPU driver.
