    a program has "m-f-c" icon preventing me from shut-down


    Recently I found my computer running slow ...


    Well... It may be totally irrelevant but I just spot a program which has a "m-f-c" icon preventing me from shut-down. I don't know what is that and why it exists and why it prevents me shutting down my computer.


    The program has no name and I was wondering if it was a bug...

    :)

    GPU-Z Program Icon Submission

    Suggestion to have an option to change Notification Area icon this way too.
    Suggestion to finally have proper separate Options window like most (all?) Windows programs do.

    unknown program preventing win 10 from shutting down

    Windows 10 Professional 17134

    For most of the time, I have this notice saying "the following programs are preventing system from shutting down", or some messages like that, when I try to shut down the system, and in the list, there is always a program with blank name and very general
    icon (literally a window, low resolution). I have no idea what program this is, I tried to find it in process, but there seems no such program. Is there a way to find what program this is? A log tool perhaps? Thank you.
