    Two Circles on desktop behind apps


    I have noticed two circles located on the left third of the screen that has two circles. I have also noticed that often a cursor is attached to the upper circle. Are these there for a purpose? Do I need them? If not, how do I get rid of them?

    :)

    Updated to Windows 10 and Desktop blinks every few seconds

    I recently upgraded to Windows 10 from Window 7 on a Compaq laptop. After the upgrade the desktop icons began to blink on and off every few seconds. At the same time, the CPU activity is at 100%. Additionally, the mouse pointer has a continuous blue
    circle. The desktop is stable for 1 to 2 seconds in between blinks, and I can access a program from a desktop icon or the start menu. The program windows are stable (no blinking), but the desktop continues the blinking behind the program window. What to
    do?

    Two Circles on desktop behind apps

    Sounds like you have a GUI issue.
    If a complete shutdown and restart doesn't fix the issue.
    Might need to reinstall Video Drivers?

    Can you post a screenshot?
