Why do I have background distortion when I select folders?

I recently downloaded some games from they play store. They have since been removed.

I noticed shortly after, when I select a folder on my home screen, black lines and weird letters that look like some kind of coding appear in the background. When I unselect the folder, background goes back to normal.

I have restarted the tablet, run a virus scan (clean), removed any apps that were recently downloaded. Nothing has worked so far, I'm worried something is corrupted or there's a virus somewhere that's not getting picked up on the scan.

Image attached.

Thanks in advance for any advice!

Is that the default Samsung launcher? It doesn't look like the Samsung Experience.

I'm not sure what you're asking, but I haven't changed anything but the background images.

I'm thinking either the tablet needs a factory reset (wipe data) or LCD cable needs to be reseated.

It's weird how you managed to screenshot that so I think hardware isn't the issue.
