Windows 10: How do I fix my games from randomly minimizing when not playing in my full resolution?

When I am playing games like Call of Duty, Escape from Tarkov, and Fortnite in a resolution lower than my monitor resolution and stretched to full screen my monitor is 2560x1440 and I am playing in 1920x1080 my games will randomly minimize. I know its not windows key or alt tab as I've locked my windows key and the alt tab menu does not appear. I've tried closing all open applications in case an app was trying to grab focus but the problem still occurs. I've tried closing every app in the tray and the problem still occurs. Is there anything else I can try?

Games minimizing randomly

This is a problem due to an application named "ipconfig.exe" which pops up for less than a second and minimizes game, it appears after a scheduled time to reset the public IP.

This problem generally arises due to use of some obsolete third-party application software to hide the public IP address. Possible solutions :

• Uninstalling that software can be a fix
• Full reset

 

Games minimizing randomly

Yes it happens while I am playing and minimizes my game however when I am not playing there is occasionally something that pops up for a split second and I am not able to see what it is. I think this is is what is causing it to minimize.

The only thing I can think of is I installed the Nvidia driver software called GeForce Experience and updated a driver.

Yes it happens to any game played in fullscreen.
