Research direction
Start by running the linked ProgressBarBug project and targeting Windows, then reproduce the animation while reducing the ProgressBar Value. Trace the Windows ProgressBar control behavior involved in that update. Done means the left side no longer moves briefly when the value decreases, with the existing startup reproduction confirming the fix.
