A random pop up shows up in Windows. It’s a windowed pop up, with a Blue screen as the background. It’s doesn’t look like a command prompt since the background is a blank blue background (with no writing) but I’ve heard of people having had random command prompts window pop up like this before. But whatever this window that keeps popping up has a blue background.
It will show for 1 second and happens randomly no matter what I’m doing. It closes too fast for me to identify what it is. The window itself has no title to it at the top. It’s especially annoying when gaming cause it minimizes game and interrupts my play.
I know you are supposed to use like Windows Task Scheduler program to try to identify this process, whatever it is. But I’m in windows Task Scheduler looking around and I have no idea what to look for. Can someone help me identify this process some how?
On the first screen in Task Scheduler, titled “Task Scheduler Summary” at the top. There are 3 sections:
1. Overview of Task Scheduler
2. Task Status - there is nothing listed here when I check for any task that may have run recently. Setting it to 24 hours shows nothing. Setting it to 1 hour shows nothing, even after checking task scheduler right after the pop up happens.
3. Active Tasks - there is a list of “127 total” active tasks that have “not expired”. I see a large list, with next run time, trigger, and location details for each task. But how do I use this to identify what task that Blue Window pop up happened? Some triggers have a time, but none of the times seem to correspond to when the pop up happened. Then there the other triggers saying “Multiple Triggers defined” or “Custom Trigger”.
So how exactly do I identify this task that is causing this blue screen pop up window? Can someone give me a step by step on how exactly to use Task Scheduler to identify the offending task? Is there another program I can use to identify what that window is?
