I've had that happen on a "Save as" dialog once, restarting Explorer fixed it but 

this should do fine

Or close explorer.exe in task manager and go to create new task at the top left, type explorer.exe to reopen. If this doesn't help try restart.
This looks like it could be a bug with Windows Aero.

Thanks for the replies. Hadn't rebooted my computer in a while tbh since I always use hibernate. Shutting down explorer and restarting it from run didn't do anything. However, once I rebooted, the issue was fixed. I feel like such a dumbass for not doing so initially. Thanks
