Windows 10: File Explorer opens randomly

Hi, I have a problem and is that yesterday my pc was lagging because I had a 3d rendering software eating all the RAM, so all the other tasks suffer lagging as a consequence, so I decided to close everything except task manager and the program. When it finished, I used the manager to open explorer.exe again, but one of the last programs before that to open required me to open with the admin. privileges checkmark open, and forgot to disable it when opening explorer.exe, I didn't think it was a problem, so go on my day.


but now that explorer opens without the admin privileges, it pops-up every single time I press something related with going back to the desktop ( 5 times shift; alt+tab; windows+tab, etc), but when I use manager to restart it with privileges, it doesn't happen, but I'm sure I'm not supposed to do this every time I use my pc

:)

 

File explorer opens randomly

After a recent automatic update, Windows File Explorer opens randomly and continuously. Windows 10 OS. Any help?

 

File explorer opens randomly

I can imagine a keyboard (or programmable mouse) malfunction being behind that symptom. Try detaching your keyboard (after bringing up the OSK.exe to use with either a mouse, Touch, or pen). Note that that would only be a diagnostic step to try to isolate
the problem cause. Fixing it would then involve doing something to change how your keyboard was being used.



Good luck
