If I set Display in PVE8 to none, my Windows 10 VM taskbar will have blurred transparency, but NoVNC will not work, thus I can't remotely check what is going on.

However when I

1. Change Display to VMWare Compatible (vmware) so that I can remotely check what is going on
2. Duplicate the 2 displays to the native resolution of the monitor in the Windows 10 VM

The taskbar no longer blurs.

Any idea how I can get the blur back?

you mean inside rdp virtual session ?
 
No, my Windows 10 VM is normally used as a workstation via GPU passthrough. But there are times when I would like to access it using NoVNC directly from Proxmox's web interface, today I have to use something like Rustdesk instead.
