I am experiencing some random interface glitches. Seems to randomly appear when using some commands, cannot pinpoint, but it happens also sometimes when I modify some parameter in gh. Closing and reopening Rhino doesn’t resolve the problem. I need to restart my Laptop.

Hello - the first thing to try is to disable the above plug-ins in Options > PLug-ins page, then close and re-open Rhino. If the problem is gone, you can test re-enabling these one at a time to see if you can find the culprit.
On the other hand, getting a legitimate, uncracked version of Rhino is probably the best bet.
Thank you for the quick reply. It’s been long since I cleaned up unused plugins. Maybe this is the solution! I have deleted all the extra unused plugins. I will observe a couple of days to see it the glitch is gone and confirm the solution.
Hello- so far, nothing I see in your information or email address shows any licenses registered. Please contact sales.eu@mcneel.com if you think you have a legitimate license that is somehow not registered.
I performed a fresh install and updated graphic Drivers. So far no issues, so I guess this resolves the problem. @theoutside I have reintroduced the number on the fresh install, maybe it appears now?

I have done that multiple times. It doesn’t fix the problem. Resetting the toolbar and restarting Rhino doesn’t fix this. The only way I have to correct it is by restarting my PC. It will not appear for a couple of days, but generally re appears every week/2weeks.
I don’t think there is a specific workflow. It doesn’t happen exactly at a specific time or command. But I have found it happening in two cases repeatedly.
When using deformation tools like cage edit, not always, but it will sometimes end up glitching the interface. I can minimize and maximize to momentarily clear the glitch but any camera movement or command execution triggers the glitch.
Sometimes, I am using Grasshopper and I just created a grid of points and I was changing the number of grid size, it will also glitch (just the rhino interface) suddenly.
As a long shot blow out any vents and fans so they are no longer clogged with dust - essentially ensure the thermal handling of your laptop is back to spec. Just in case heat buildup causes chip instability.
