Screeshot glitched

– I`m using the latest release from Parrot OS security edition, I’m working on a project and needed to take some screenshots, when a press PrintScreen and the popup shows the screenshot seems normal, i can see it normally in the “Eye of MATE” but when i upload it somewhere it gets all glitched (you can see it on the screenshot area). I don’t know what is happening, neither found anything to help. I’m running on a relative old CPU (Core 2 duo E8400) but it never gave me this problems, and a GTX 1050 TI (maybe is the video card???). Please give me some help.
P.S.: I’m running it as my main OS in this machine.

Could you provide a screenshot showing “the glitch”? Your screenshot above appears completely OK.

Alternatively, you can manually take screenshots by trying Parrot Security’s default installed tool “Take Screenshot” (Round disc icon in Menu) to take screenshots easily.
