    Hi Paywindow3

    Sorry, I was offline, right click and delete the entry indicated below, then restart (not shut down) your PC and check if that popup is gone.

    Hi Paywindow3

    I am Dave, I will help you with this.

    1

    When does this screen popup, is that when you start your PC or while you are working on your PC?

    2

    Please provide a screenshot of the command prompt window that pops up

    3

    Click the link below to download a small free utility that does not require installation.

    https://download.sysinternals.com/files/Autorun...

    When the file downloads, unzip it.

    Run Autoruns64 as Administrator

    In the filter box in Autoruns, type cmd

    If that results in any entries, please provide a screenshot of the result of that search.
