Windows 10: Explorer refuses to open from taskbar and random square on desktop

Hello, I've been experiencing some bugs with Windows 10, I tried restarting it but the problem still remains.

There's this weird app that's making this square thing show up on my desktop, I've disabled all the possible apps at startup that could cause this issue but the issue still remains, is there any better way of figuring out what's going on? Like some sort of way to see what's drawing that square on there?

Also, about the explorer issue, I don't know what caused that to happen, I just started up my computer and it was like that out of the blue. Does anyone have any idea what's going on?

I've made a video about it which can be found here:

file explore will not stay open

On my HP desktop, file explorer will not stay open from the taskbar. It quickly opens and closes. After several attempts it sometimes will remain open.

 

Why does the taskbar at times not appear?

Occasionally the taskbar refuses to come out of hiding. This often - but not always - happens if I have
Paint or File Explorer open but also can happen when a
Word document is open. (Not always the same document and, if I have other documents open, they will not cause the taskbar to refuse to appear.) I can get to the taskbar by minimizing the offending program, app, document, whatever, but I will
have to do this until I completely close whatever is hanging up the taskbar.

My question is why does this happen, and can I fix it without resorting to closing whatever is bothering the taskbar?

 

First off I would download process explorer from https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/...sexplorer.aspx . From the first image in the link you can see a 'target' icon on the second toolbar. Drag this over the blank square and it should give you the information on what program is causing the issue. As for an inactivated OS and still running, that may be another issue.
