One of the apps your system is set to run on start-up is doing that. Everything I see on-line says it should never have gotten to a point where you could download it and set it to run. It’s probably junk and not likely anything you really wanted running on start-up.

Are you running Windoze 8, 8.1 or 10? Open your Task Mangler by typing CTRL-SHIFT-ESC and click the More Details link. Switch to the Startup tab and disable any junk there you don’t know you need. Feel free to send a list if you’re unsure.

Win 10, but I’m really thinking of going back to Win 8.1, as that’s what was installed in this thing. If I reformat, that’s where it will go...

I’ve copied all my pics and documents to the Slave, so I’m good with whatever has to be done.

I don’t know what I can safely disable.

There are so many of them... :o|
