  1. Invisible window on desktop


    Hi everyone!

    So I have this... I don't know if call it issue, the thing is, there is this small invisible window in my desktop, I realized it was there today, it doesn't seem to impact the performance, that is why I didn't discover it before I guess, don't know for how long has been there tbh, it seems like there is no process in the task manager that can help me identify it, I don't know what it is for, it's just there, I can drag it around and that's the only way the frame becomes visible to me, but there is nothing inside, I can't right click it, I can't resize it and is infront of every other window, icon, bar and pretty much anything in the interface, nothing behind it works, my antivirus didn't show me anything and I don't really know what to do.

    Do you know what can I do, any suggestions?

  3. Invisible Window on Desktop (Windows 10)

    I actually wanted to post an answer to my question that I was able to resolve.

    The problem: The problem I kept having was this invisible window would show up after a windows update. It was obviously a program window, however, I couldn't move it or resize it or close it. There wasn't a
    program process showing up in Task Manager. Just this window. I did all of the suggestions of starting in safe mode etc. to try and figure out "What freaking program is running??!??" so I could shut it down. After many attempts and frustrations and searches
    all over the internet, I finally found out a possibility. For me this was the solution. I will post a screenshot of my desktop with the invisible window for reference.

    The Solution: For me the solution is my Nvidia GEForce Experience is trying to install or update new drivers. However, it doesn't show up in your Task Manager as the opened invisible window. Just open your
    GEForce Experience program. Update your drivers and restart your computer. The window should no longer be on the desktop. And you don't need to go insane trying to figure out what program the invisible window is running. Now you know. It's your graphic card
    just trying to update your drivers. Good Luck for those of you who have had this problem and couldn't find the answer easily.

    As you can see the outline of the window once I clicked on it. It's crazy invisible if not clicked.
