    Recent Windows update causing this popup to constantly appear


    So I just updated my windows to a newer version that was released recently and now I keep getting a popup of AacAmbientLighting.exe for a version error. I can't get the popup to close or get the update to download. I even tried restarting my laptop and no luck. I have an Asus Rog Flow X13 2020-21 model. Please help.

    :)

  3. Project Second screen constantly appearing.

    Hi Norga,

    Thank you for using Windows 10.

    Let us know some more information so that we can diagnose and troubleshoot the issue in a better way:

    • what is the exact issue that you want us to help with? Do you want to get help in projecting a second screen or to remove the popup?
    • As you've said " I tried unsuccessfully to project a screen", do you wish to project a second screen currently?
    • What happened exactly when you tried to project a second screen? Did you receive any error message or any error code?
    The popup comes as the system might not be able to detect the monitors. I suggest you to update the Display drivers, it may force the system to detect the available monitors. Here is the steps:

    • Press “Windows + X” and select Device manger.
    • Locate the driver and expand the driver icon.
    • Right click on the driver icon and click on Update.

    Reply with the information and we'll be happy to assist you.

    Recent Windows update causing this popup to constantly appear

    File Explorer jump list doesn't consistently show location popups

    Thanks for your reply.

    Whatever "it" is exactly, all I know is, it does not behave consistently. This is so across multiple systems. Also, it isn't just recent items, but pinned items that fail to produce the popup on mouse over (when they should).

    If the File Explorer setting you're referring to is "Show pop-up description for folder and desktop items," I already have that turned on.

    Based on my tests, I tend to think this is a bug. Did you try reproducing it?

    1. Right click File Explorer in taskbar to open the jump list.
    2. Mouse over any of the pinned or recent folders and see if the popup with the location path appears (as shown in the screenshot with the original post).
    3. If it does appear, close out of the jump list by left clicking anywhere outside of it.
    4. Repeat steps 1-3 until you find the popups not appearing. In my experience, it always occurs, even if not right away. And all too often when I need them most.
