What graphics card and driver version are you using? Should be able to find both of those in GeForce experience, which you appear to have installed.

I have a 1050 Ti, and the graphics drivers im using is the GeForce Game Ready Driver version 527.56

Did you update to that driver version recently or have you been using it since they were release on 12/8?

Is compatibility mode enabled or disabled in osu!'s settings?

Sorry, missed your last post. Try enabling compatibility mode to see if that does anything.

I know your using 1050 drivers for nividia but check if any other apps opened or running in background have alt tab binded. if so, close or rebind them.

compatibility mode works, but my fps drops and im getting stutters.

If compatibility mode works I would just try reinstalling your graphics card drivers entirely then. Or try rolling back a version instead.

I forgot to mention this but this also happens when I do Win+Tab

I tried that, didnt help. If this can help, every time I launch up the game, I start up with lower fps also, and when I press the insert key, and reopen up the game, my fps is fine and the alt tab bug goes away

You tried both reinstalling and rolling back a version?

What did you change? Probably shouldn't be necessary to change anything there ever.

Can you actually try going back further than one driver version, perhaps all the way back to version 522.25? Some other people with a similar issue to you said that version worked so I'm curious to see if it works for you as well.

Well I reverted the changes when it didnt help, but I tried disabling full screen optimizations in compatibility.

Try pressing Insert button, it closes osu but if you open it, it saves all your stuff you did.

That's what I usually do, but it was getting annoying how I had to do that every time I open the game. Also, that version driver did fix my game so thank you!
