Windows 10: Windows 10 File Explorer Keeps Opening

I attached a portable USB Seagate drive to my computer. The drive seems to be operating normally, except the computer dings and the file Explorer opens about every five minutes. Does anyone know of what's going on? How can I fix this? It's driving... Ha... Get it... Driving me crazy!

:)

 

File Explorer has gone crazy after last nights upgrade.

My only has icons instead of full descriptions. I can not get back to a point where I have tabs that actually say something. Please tell me how to get my view repaired? help... Help.... HELP!!!

 

file explorer keeps opening

so right now in another application that I cannot close I was working on creating a fiverr gig and I had to insert a photo I inserted the photo and it worked smoothly but then the files opener opened back up I pressed the cancel button as the photo had already appeared
in the appropriate area and then it opened again... and again and over and over so I gave up and tried to close Microsoft edge and it did not work if you have a solution to this it would be appreciated

Hello mmshipon, *Smile

If you like, turn off AutoPlay for "Removable drive" by setting it to "Take no action" to see if that may help.
