Spinning blue circle questions

Hi, I know what the spinning blue circle means, but when the Blue spinning circle + Pointer turns into a singular spinning circle does that mean its processing something bigger than average?

 

Unresponsive app/spinning blue circle.

I have had an issue for the last month or so with an intermittent spinning blue circle appearing during general desktop use. Sometimes it will pop up as much as every minute or so. I started a related thread here a few weeks ago in which Ten forums member zbook picked up on on some other system issues which he felt should be addressed before troubleshooting the spinning circle.

To date those issues which include an in place upgrade repair, replacing multiple misbehaving drivers that had caused BSOD and fixing the drive file system have been completed and zbook is confident the spinning circle troubleshooting can proceed with members that are more experienced in this type of troubleshooting. He suggested that this may be troubleshooted in a clean boot state and that a 3rd party software may be responsible for the spinning circle. I would appreciate any more assistance with this. Thanks.

 

Spinning Blue Circle

I have Windows 10 on my relatively new laptop (8 months or so). This dreaded blue spinning circle wasn't always here, it only arrived about 2 months ago but plans to stay I think unless I can figure out how to get rid of it. I've read posts online from
others frustrated with this problem, so it seems I'm not alone. The suggestions on how to solve the problem are pretty in-depth, and I don't have the background on the inner-workings of the computer to go messing around with the systems that some suggested
to try. Surely, there can't be a whole host of reasons for this stupid circle spinning in Windows 10, so why can't I find one answer to shut it down? If I must cart it off to the computer store and pay to have it corrected, so be it but before I do, I'd like
to know that I had no other option. I hate this blue circle, the frustration has cost me enough so I really begrudge spending valuable dollars to make it disappear. Grrrrrrrrrr.
