Cursor keeps jumping to start button and opening the start menu

Since I bought this laptop the cursor keeps jumping to the start button and opening the start menu. It's really frustrating. It does it about every half hour or so. I looked at a few threads on here and Reddit but nothing has worked. My laptop doesn't have
a touch screen and I don't use a wireless mouse, just the trackpad.

 

Cursor randomly jumps to start button and opens the start menu

My cursor keeps jumping to the start button and opening the menu. It happens randomly every 15 minutes or so. Not a big deal but it's frustrating and disruptive to my work - especially when I end up inadvertently clicking on an app that I didn't mean to open. The touchpad works completely fine otherwise.

Jump lists do not show on taskbar but do on Start button


I want jump lists on both taskbar and Start button, they are only showing on Start button. I have checked the registry key that controls this attribute and the value is "1" so both should show. The "Show recently opened items... " switch in Settings is set to ON. Something is supressing the jump lists on my Taskbar icons. I do get live thumbnails on the icons but that is all. Right clicking does nothing.

Windows 10 Pro is an upgrade install and did not clean install afterwards. In my opinion not needed. I have run SFC /scannow and got a clean report.

CORRECTION: The Start button is showing the context menu on right click, not the jump list, unless that IS the jump list.

Is the registry key value 1 to show the jump lists?
