    Windows 10 Random Drop Down Menus and Popups


    I've had Windows 10 for two years with no problems. I've begun to get drop down menus appearing constantly when I left click anywhere on my screen. I started this message and a drop down menu appeared: Paste, Select All, Print, Read Aloud, View Source Inspect Element. Another pop up lists View, Sort by, Refresh, Paste, Paste Shortcut,Graphics Properties Display Settings. I see 6 or seven different menu pop ups. The popups prevent you from making any entries on any search bars and also prevent backspacing. They make the computer unusable. All Windows updates are installed. Can someone give me advice? Thanks.Tom

    :)

    Issues with popups and drop down menus on Windows 10

    Hi,

    Thank you for contacting Microsoft Community. Your interest in Windows 10 is much appreciated.

    In order to help you better, could you please confirm a couple of things:

    • When this issue occurs?
    • Where do you find popups and drop down menus?
    • Do you get any error message?
    I suggest you to install all the pending Windows updates and check if the issue persists.

    Hope this information was helpful and do let us know if you need further assistance. We will be glad to assist.

    Random Popups Windows 10

    Hi Microsoft,

    As the title suggested, I am currently encountering the issue where random popups occurred. It would seems like it was a command prompt and it randomly appeared and closes immediately. Is there any way to resolve this issue?

    Thank you.

    Windows 10 Random Drop Down Menus and Popups

    Feature suggestion: Add right-click menu

    Suggestion: Please add a Windows 7 Jump-List and/or right-click menu to the GPU-Z icon in the Windows taskbar. Possible menus in it would be "Exit" and "About GPU-Z...".
    Maybe also "Switch to tab 1/Switch to tab 2/Switch to videocard 1/Switch to videocard 2" too.
    Examples of programs that have such menus are ICQ, Skype, AIM.

    NOTE: It seems for a right-click menu, Windows 7 is not needed - it works on WinXP and Vista too.
    But even a Windows 7 Jump-list may be good enough.
    What do you think?
