I don't have this problem with Windows 10

It seems that is problem is caused when switching windows. Desktop Duplication API when alt-tabbing, as it causes the DXGI_ERROR_ACCESS_LOST error. This error usually occurs when the operating system moves the application using the Desktop Duplication API to the background, causing a loss of access to the desktop image.

One way to handle this issue is by properly catching the DXGI_ERROR_ACCESS_LOST error and reinitializing the Duplicator object when this error occurs.

but its weird why was this only happening in windows 11 and not windows 10 maybe update to the DDA?

Since exception can be ignored

    def release(self):
        self.stop()

        try: self._duplicator.release()
        except: pass

        try: self._stagesurf.release()
        except: pass
