How can I find out what is causing a Cmd Prompt to open and close?
I was on vacation for about 10 days, so I'm not sure exactly when an app/windows was updated but this problem definitely started in the last 2 weeks.
I will be typing away in my editor or playing a game and I will see a Command Prompt open and close very fast. Sometimes it will take focus away from my game and leave me in an alt-tabbed kinda state where I have to click back in the game to regain mouse control
How can I find what could be periodically launching this?
I have opened Task Scheduler and found some hourly tasks (Chrome/Adobe/Dropbox) that I changed to run in mornings only but this "popup" happened again. Sorting the Task Scheudler by Last Run Time I don't see anything that has run in the last hour
Where else could this be happening or is there any other way to trace when a program launches Command Prompt?
