Waptexit display bug under Windows 10 1903

Good morning,
Since the 1903 update, waptexit.exe has a strange display. But this only happens when the machine is shut down. If you run it manually in Windows, there are no problems

I tried it on a machine in Full HD with a dpi zoom, and one without HD or zoom: same result.
I'm looking for differences in Windows 1903, perhaps a graphics rendering service that stops and on which the form display depends?
In 1809 I had a different display bug, but only on the first restart after installation:

Wapt version 1.7.4.6077 (client and server) same when installing nightly 1.7.4.6093.
Sincerely

Same problem following an update on another machine with an integrated Intel graphics card.

I confirm, I have the same problem (tested on a virtual machine running an updated Windows 10).

The topic was also raised on the mailing list, and Alexandre responded here:

Basically, there's a bug in Windows 1903. WAPT isn't the only one affected; with this new version, the text doesn't appear in the graphical interfaces using the shutdown script once someone has logged into the machine...
If you've found a workaround, we'd love to hear it. For now, we'll open a bug report with Microsoft and look for a solution in the meantime.
Sincerely,
Denis

Hello,
Has a solution been found for this display problem that affects all our client workstations updated to W10 1903?
Best regards,
Christophe.

The bug is unfortunately in Windows, so a fix will almost certainly come with a future version of Windows.
Sincerely.

Well... if we have to wait for Microsoft, we'll probably have to wait for Windows 11 to be released...
I don't see many people talking about this problem online, so I'm not sure it's a priority for them, unfortunately...

There's clearly something new:

Looks like this issue is fixed in Windows 10 1909 Preview builds. I have tested on Windows 10 Insider Preview build 18990.1(vb_release). 190921-1704. Powershell now shows the text properly when shutdown scripts are being executed.

For me, WAPTEXIT doesn't even launch after rebooting the computer on a machine running Windows 10 version 1903

Can you tell us more?
No more launches?
We're all on version 1903 at the office and we don't have this problem.
