Random Opening New Window

Anonymous

I am running Windows 11 Pro with August updates and Edge is Version 104.0.1293.70 (Official build) (64-bit) For last 2 weeks have been experiencing random opening of a new Window. In fact, as I typed "experiencing" focus jumped to the random new window that opens. Have not been able to determine a trigger or cause. It is a new window and not a pop-up. I have blocked popups in settings. Since I teach online it is pretty frustrating to have that new window pop up while I am screen-sharing. No error messages-just the new window magically opening. I've cleared cookies and sign-in.

Any ideas how to get rid of this? Thanks in advance.
