Windows 10: Background process and unresponsive taskbar

Hello everyone. A couple of weeks ago I performed a clean update to Windows 11 through the tool for USB device on my Asus N580GD. Since that moment, I often noticed the loading circle appearing near to the pointer - or in its place - as a background process is running. This is particularly annoying during the usage of Edge because the windows goes on bottom - even though nothing appears - and whenever I need to switch among multiple apps because the taskbar turns to be not responsive or the apps window fails to appear on top. I disabled many apps that had the permission to work in background,

Dear Amma,

Sorry for the trouble, here are few steps that I would suggest:

• Press the Windows + X
• Open the Command Prompt (Admin)
• Now type the command as " Get-AppXPackage -AllUsers | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml"}
• Push Enter
• Restart the system.
• Now see if the issue persists
• If it persists the only option is to create a new user admin account.

Do let me know if it helped and please mark the answer as helpful if it helped.

 

Program running a background process?

I'm running Corel Video Studio 2018, and it's updates function shows characteristics of a background process:

- the program has an auto check daily plus a manual option for updates

- manually checked, presented with an option of downloading an update and Ok'd, evidence of any activity vanishes from the program workspace, yet the connected internet modem activity light begins running hot as the download happens

- it's repeatable over several up-date cycles

The evidence seems to suggest a background activity - whilst the program/PC is free to use for other things. Several software packages do this.

However, a check in task manager/processes, show all, does not display any info of a related background process for any Corel or Video Studio program. If a background process is being used by the software, MUST it be listed in the task manager/processes
list?

Platform is windows 7 home sp1 64bit plus the important patches.

I appreciate the assistance, but the Windows key doesn't respond to my pressing.
