Every time I screenshot on MacBook Air M2, the flipping dark screen overlay remains even after the screenshot has been taken. Please see the images and videos attached. I have to restart the Mac to make it go away, nothing else works. And then when I take another screenshot, it stays dark again. My Mac is fully updated.
