I’m not sure what it is, but I’ve checked various sources and found nothing. I initially thought it might be a virus and used Malwarebytes to try removing it. I ran some scans, did custom drive checks, and quarantined a few files after restarting. Still, the window pops up occasionally. After closing it normally, it doesn’t affect my PC. I also looked in Task Manager, but nothing unusual showed up. Could someone help me understand what it is and how it might be impacting my system? I’m a bit worried about its behavior. Thanks!

Remember antivirus and antimalware can only eliminate the infection to the extent possible. It doesn’t ensure complete removal or restore damaged system files. If infected, it’s best to wait for removal, then back up your data and reinstall Windows.

The Process Explorer tool from the SysInternals collection provides details about the application that launched a window, including its owner and other relevant information. You can obtain it for free from Microsoft: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinte...s-explorer
