    App store and Photo app annoying


    Basically I have a problem... Every time I leave my computer for more than 5 minutes the App Store and Photo app opens. It is bugging me as it minimizes games I am in. I then just right click and exit.

    Any ideas on how to prevent this?

    Hi,

    Try going into Setting, Privacy then Background apps

    turn off the option to allow these to run in the background
