    Receive "How do you want to open this file" on startup part 2


    I started receiving the message and pop-up "How do you want to open this file?" every time I start my computer a while back now. I have found the file that is causing this. The file is located in C://USERS see the attached image. It is just an archive, no extension at all. I have opened it and found that it has nothing inside. I can delete it and after a few days it reappears. It seems to be created by the system. I am using windows 10 Home Single language version 20H2

    :)

    File Explorer Windows 10 - How do you stop it from opening at startup

    That's not Windows 10. Mine opens that stupid window at the startup, and checking the startup folder, there is NO item there saying Files Explorer. That was no help at all.

    Simply, HOW? I got the DDS plugin but the POS wont open DDS files still. Can someone give me a step-by-step rundown of how to install the DDS plugin for gimp so I know if I'm missing something?
