Why are all my screen icons disappearing after quitting any running app?

AC Question

All Screen Icons disappear after quitting any running app.

I have a 2012 32GB Nexus 7 running KitKat 4.4.4 (I refuse to update to LolliCrap, which wrecked my other N7!), it has been running great up until very recently when it started this odd quirk. After quitting a running app (it happens with most apps I have installed) the "desktop" screens (all) are blank, no app or widget icons!

After a 10 to 20 seconds, all the icons reappear on their own. This happens almost every time after quitting a running app. It's really getting frustrating. Note, the App icons do NOT disappear permanently, but all are missing (blank screen) immediately after quitting any running app.

Now3 before you jump to conclusions, this is a 32GB 2012 N7, 70% of memory is unused and I routinely run Cashe cleaners, every once in a while a memory defrag app (high rated one) and I also use "Droid Optimzier" by Ashampoo which is very highly rated by users and it keeps RAM and memory optimized.

Why is this disappearing App icon happening and how to fix it??

Uninstall all of those apps. They're hindering the performance of your tablet.
