Windows 10: Strange desktop object W10-64

I am getting a strange icon appearing on my desktop. It is a simple white rectangle with a folded upper right corner. It has no name. Right clicking on it only gives option to delete, cut, or create shortcut. It seems to appear whenever something gets installed or upgraded ... such as Dropbox. It appears when I run certain programs also. There is no indication of it in Explorer.

Any ideas on troubleshooting this would be appreciated in advance.

Suggestions For Light Gaming W10 Desktop

Out of the blue a family member casually asked me to find them a cheap desktop to replace their 6 y/o HP Enve M6 laptop with AMD A10-4600m. My response was to drive up to Microcenter and then install W10 and the purchased 850 EVO SSD into their laptop.

Don't expect the budget here will allow building anything from scratch. I have no parts to contribute to this build and would have to buy everything. I'm mostly looking for suggestions for pre-made options that could be found on the used market. If you have a better idea please feel free to expand upon it. Very open to ideas and have some time to make this happen now that the laptop is usable. Gaming is pretty far from my bailiwick and I've seen some stellar budget builds ideas here in the past. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Rough idea of specs

• Intel i5 4590 or AMD equivalent
• 8 GB RAM
• HDMI on MB or through discrete GPU
• Capable of playing a modern game at lower settings
• Fairly cool and power efficient
• Couple hundred dollars max
• Stable

 

Can I run a W10-64 OS on a 32bit Machine?

It may sound strange but I have the need to run a 64 bit W10 OS on a 32 bit machine. My 32 bit machine (with W10-32 bit) as had a fatal crash. The C: HDD appears to be toast. I have a drive from another machine available with W10-64 bit on it. I've put this
in the 32 bit machine and it appear to run fine after a couple startup errors.

Is there any GOT-YAs that I should be aware of? I plan to restore 32 bit W10 sometime in the near future.

Thanks, Gerry
