Dunno.  I'll try that next time, I guess.

I will try to pay attention.  I don't think that my actions in Emacs
beforehand are necessarily related - I have seen this happen also when
returning to an Emacs frame after using another Windows app (window mgr
window).

I don't change things like display-time (I show it, normally), but I do
sometimes show other info in the mode line temporarily (returning to my
usual mode line, with display-time).  My usual `mode-line-format', FWIW:

("%e"
 #("-" 0 1
   (help-echo "mouse-1: Select (drag to resize), mouse-2: Delete others, \
mouse-3: Delete this"))
 mode-line-mule-info mode-line-client mode-line-modified mode-line-remote
 mode-line-frame-identification mode-line-buffer-identification
 #("   " 0 3
   (help-echo "mouse-1: Select (drag to resize), mouse-2: Delete others, \
mouse-3: Delete this"))
 mode-line-position
 (vc-mode vc-mode)
 #("  " 0 2
   (help-echo "mouse-1: Select (drag to resize), mouse-2: Delete others, \
mouse-3: Delete this"))
 mode-line-modes
 (which-func-mode
  ("" which-func-format
   #("--" 0 2
     (help-echo "mouse-1: Select (drag to resize), mouse-2: Delete others, \
mouse-3: Delete this"))))
 (global-mode-string
  (#("--" 0 2
     (help-echo "mouse-1: Select (drag to resize), mouse-2: Delete others, \
mouse-3: Delete this"))
   global-mode-string))
 #("-%-" 0 3
   (help-echo "mouse-1: Select (drag to resize), mouse-2: Delete others, \
mouse-3: Delete this")))

> Any idea when this started?

Sorry, not really.  I think it started around the same time as other
redisplay problems that I and others have reported lately - late last year,
perhaps?  Dunno.
