I have Windows 7 32-Bit computer. Some new problem has appeared and i couldnt find any solution. Whenever i play a game, or whenever any app runs, it randomly switches to desktop. Its so annoying. Every 1 or 2 (or even less) mins it just takes me back to desktop. I dont have any viruses, gadges or anything. And yes i tried Clean Boot. I dont know what else to do. I dont want to reset my computer.

I'm sorry to hear that you're experiencing this issue. Since you're using Windows 7, it's possible that the issue is related to outdated drivers or software. I recommend that you try updating your graphics card drivers and any other drivers that may be related to your computer's hardware. You can also try running a system file checker scan to check for any corrupted system files. To do this, open the Command Prompt as an administrator and type "sfc /scannow" without the quotes. If the issue persists, you may want to consider upgrading to a newer version of Windows, as Windows 7 is no longer supported by Microsoft and may not receive security updates or bug fixes.
Best Regards,
Hania Lian
