Windows 10: When I open Settings, it just flashes on the screen and then immediately disappears.

Recently when I tried to check a setting on my Windows 10 machine Version 22H2, Build 19045.3803, the settings window briefly 1 second and then immediately disappeared. I thought it was just a temporary glitch, but that behavior has remained for a week or two. I'd appreciate suggestions for fixing that behavior. Thank you.

calculator app disappears immediately after clicking on it - opens and disappears

Update your Windows to the latest version is the best way to solve the "Calculator app disappears immediately after clicking on it" issue. The steps for it is very simple and are as follows:

1. Tap down the Windows key along with the letter I to open the Settings window.
2. Now, from the available options select Update & Security.
3. After that, select Windows Update from the left side panel and then click on Check for updates from the right-hand side window.
4. Wait, until the process is over. If an update is available then follow the on-screen instructions to install.

 

Icons that flash and disappear immediately

I cannot use the settings or mail icons on my start page because they
flash onto the screen and immediately disappear making them unusable. I am not tech "saavy"; how can I fix this problem? I am using Windows 8.1. Many thanks.

 

PowerShell window opens up automatically and disappears immediately

Hi guys. From some time, I've been witnessing strange behavior of my computer. Specifically, the PowerShell window opens automatically and immediately disappears. This has been going on for a few months. Finally, I decided to take a closer look at it. I would like to check which program (or virus *Biggrin) is opening PowerShell and what script it is executing. Here's a list of things I've done so far:

• I've checked the autostart, services, and scheduled tasks for suspicious items, but I haven't found anything suspicious.
• I've tried to examine the PowerShell logs in Event Viewer, but my knowledge is too limited to interpret them.

Here's a sample log from Event Viewer:



There is plenty of logs like that. My Windows number: Windows 10 22H2(OS Build 19045.3324) Every help would be really appreciated, because my knowledge is too limited to solve it myself. Best regards, Tom.
