Solution #1 – Temporary fix to remove current Ghost menu, text or window items.
Open a command prompt
Click Start > type CMD > right click on CMD > choose Run As Administrator
type: net stop uxsms
type: net start uxsms
You can create a batch file to automate the above process
Open Notepad (or download and install Notepad++)
Enter these two lines
net stop uxsms
net start uxsms
Save as FixGhosting.bat (make sure the extension is BAT)
Run any time you have a Ghost object by right clicking the file and choosing “Run As Administrator”
Soution #2 – permanently prevent Ghost menu’s, text or windows items.
Click Start and type: Adjust the appearance
Open “Adjust the Appearance and Performance of Windows”
Alternate direct route: Go to Control Panel > System > Advanced Settings >System Properties > Performance
Turn off “Fade or slide” for both menus and ToolTips
Turn off the “Fade out menu items after clicking”
