Facing issues with a pop-up that disrupts your new project and you're struggling to resolve it.
Facing issues with a pop-up that disrupts your new project and you're struggling to resolve it.
Experiencing difficulties with the newly built computer setup. The issue appears in a video not listed on my YouTube channel (starting at 0:07). After a fresh installation, it doesn’t work, yet I can’t pinpoint when it happens. My system has minimal software installed, but here’s a rundown of what I have:
- Windows 10 Pro with auto-detected drivers, including AMD GPU drivers
- Windows 10 updates via WinRAR and Private Internet Access (VPN)
- Gigabyte drivers – only Realtek Audio and LAN
- Gigabyte Services – includes APP Center, EasyTune, V-Tuner, System Info Viewer, ON-OFF Charge
- Malware Bytes 3: 32-bit Java app
- Microsoft Expression Encoder 4 (for video recording)
- Various trial installations and updates
Things I’ve tried:
- Reinstalled Windows following the same application path; issue still occurs intermittently
- Task Scheduler cleared any activity during that window
- Autoruns showed only minor entries under drivers, WinMad, WinVerbs, and a publisher’s Mellanox entry with timestamps ending at the 46th minute of the hour. This seems coincidental given the outdated date format
- Windows Defender (Microsoft Security Essentials) full scan – no threats detected
- Malware Bytes 3 threat and memory scan – no findings
Help is greatly appreciated, as this recurring popup disrupts my workflow and forces me back to the desktop in full screen. Edited May 28, 2017 by DaRiPo
Microsoft stores private information on their servers to improve Windows 10. They are monitoring users.
Find a problem in the newest Office version. Check Task Scheduler > Microsoft > Office and see the services listed. You can click right-click and choose Disable for both OfficeBackgroundTaskHandlerLogon and OfficeBackgroundTaskHandlerRegistration. Office still works after disabling them, which suggests it might not be affecting anything important. I haven’t tested all features to confirm the issue. Let me know if this helps!
