Windows 10: Whenever I start up my PC and log in, Windows Powershell opens up.

I don't know what to do because I don't use or have ever used Windows Powershell.

The files that starts up is C:/Windows/System32/WindowsPowerShell/v1.0/powershell.exe .

PowerShell is open sourced and is available on Linux/macOS

And it's on github now

How to change the WinX menu, including Powershell/Powershell (Admin)

This part intrigues me. As suggested earler, please post a screenshot of the error message. Also, please clarify/test the follwoing:

1. Can you start PowerShell from the Start Menu?
2. If you navigate to %localappdata%\Microsoft\Windows\WinX\Group3, does PowerShell launch from the shortcuts there?
3. If #1 works & #2 doesn't, compare (& post) the target text from each shortcuts properties. For the Start Menu shortcut, right-click & select Open file location to navigate to the Start Menu folder.
