But your suggestion, to check disable full-screen optimizations, worked like a charm. Not sure why MS even offers this feature (i.e., full-screen optimizations) as it was supposed ‘to boost gaming performance and deliver a borderless full screen for you to enjoy your games’. Au contraire, MS blew it again on this one.
BTW, I utilize Uplay or now it's called Ubisoft Connect to access SH4 Gold Edition, and agree based on my experience, Ubisoft’s ‘support’ is about as useful as an ashtray on a motorcycle!
So, stay well and stay safe.

+1 on what PB said, especially the installation location. re-install somewhere other than the the Programs folder.
Good Luck!
