Strange behavior of emulators on Windows 10

After some OS updates on Windows 10, emulators in Visual Studio 2015 started to behave strange. First of all, the rendering issue where the screen has a soft blur. I don't know if you can see it in the picture below but it is not as sharp as it used to be:

Additionally, rotating screen is not working as it should be. If I rotate screen to the right it rotates to the left and half of the screen is black. And so on.

This is the the screenshot of the 6-inches screen:

I've tried to uninstall all the latest updates, reinstall emulators, reinstall whole Visual Studio but with no avail. The problem persists. I wonder if this has something to do with Hyper-V ?
