Windows 10: Cannot close an icon on the screen

I have what looks like a globe with a circled X in the lower right hand portion of the globe and 3 small x's to the left in a semi-circle. I have rebooted the computer but that didn't help. If I do anykind of search it freezes the computer and I have to use the task manager to close everthing.


Can someone please tell me what I can do to get rid of this.


Thanks in advance

:)

 

Feature suggestion: Add "Options" screen + add icon for it

Suggestion:
The place for the options, namely the top left corner system menu, is a bit strange, most similar programs do not use it like that.
Most programs use a separate Options (or maybe Settings, whichever sounds best) screen.

So, I suggest for the menu items in the system menu to become like this:
Restore
Move
Size
Minimize
Close
Check for Update...
Options
Read Asic Quality
Launch GPU-Z Instaler
About...
(or maybe Always on Top option can also stay)

Also, optionally I suggest adding a Gear or maybe Wrench icon next to the Camera icon in top right.
When that Gear or Wrench icon is clicked, for the Options/Settings screen to appear.
Where we have the Tooltips, Always on Top, Tooltip language and the other options.

What do you think? Thanks for any comments!

NOTE: Also, if the Size system menu item as well as the Restore menu item are not needed, they can both be removed. It is not trivial, but there is a way. *Smile

Hi Richard,
