    What is this little bubble which pops up?


    Since last update I am experiencing a small bubble shape which pops up at odd times.
    If the cursor goes on it then it immediately disappears.
    But what is it?

    (can't get a screen shot)

    Hi, you should be able to get a screenshot provided it stays there long enough e.g. by using your PrtSc key, then pasting that into e.g. Paint if you wish to crop it, or by using this key combo shown when you launch Snip & Sketch

    Or by using its timed function - clcik the New button and there are two timed options.

    What is the 'last update'? driver? Windows? flash? an app update? a program update? Please specify- 'last' can be very different for different people. Thanks.

    Hello dalchina,
    can't force it to appear ... have snip and sketch at the ready so I'll just have to wait till it's present.

    Just press Print Screen. Open Paint, Ctrl+V to paste the screen shot in then save it. Normally leaves everything on the screen so it should work.

    Remember when the car made a rattle but when you got to the garage the mechanic couldn't find anything.
    Well that's how I've felt. The bubble shape has arisen but as soon as I went to copy it disappeared.
    Still now finally have a screen shot ... and in the same breathe figured out what it is!

    It is the icon for Im Translator which is recently loaded and I hadn't seen it's icon...until now.

    Thanks dalchina and Ztruker

    Great- and a good thought. Fortunately I have a long garden, so as the government could be threatening to stop exercise out of the home as a few have been gathering in certain places now the weather is better, that helps. Hope things improve there.

    Enjoy that garden ... that could be a boon at this time.
    Here.. well there are still places we can walk. The police have been out checking the reason for travel (ie stopping cars).
