Issue: Something's starting and instantly closing regularly in taskbar
A couple of days ago i started having a weird and annoying issue. I've done malware-scans with Windows Defender and Malwarebytes, so i'm sure it's not something evil. Besides, i'm always very careful and have a very hygienic system. :)
The issue happens every couple of minutes on Win10 Pro: Something opens automatically and instantly closes, so i can't see what it is. Just seeing the flicker of the taskbar and it's gone when i look up (i have the taskbar on the top).
Very annoying: My screensaver doesn't start anymore, because it gets reset by this mysterious issue. And when i'm watching a movie in fullscreen, no matter if YT or VLC player, the taskbar always flashes into fullscreen and startles me.
I have not installed anything new the past days. Maybe it's a new Win10 bug? Please help me with some suggestions how to narrow down the culprit.
