Windows 8 programs and start menu keep popping up randomly help!
OK so I started a program of windows 8, I hide and go to my desktop and use chrome etc. programs all minutes from this program, I hid continues to appear, I close it and it keeps popping up for 3 - 5 times and then it disappears. Anyone know what causes this?
PROBLEM SOLVED (for me)! I had this problem for a week on my new computer. Seemed that the 'Start' button has been continually pressed. Do you happen to have a wireless keyboard that you have changed out for another which is always close to your computer... like I did. Turns out I forgot to pull the battery in my wireless keyboard and also has not entered the USB for remote transmitter/receiver. I got the keyboard on a shelf above the computer. The button 'Start' was pressed against a book so it was always "pressed" and always communicate with the computer. Just happened to do that, when I thought if something goes wrong with my original keyboard. When I out took it of the shelf, the problem stopped. I hope this helps!

On the computer windows 7, start menu keeps popping up randomly
Original title: Start Menu appears randomly
My son has used Windows 7 during nearly 2 years - for Dell i7 laptop. He told me that the start menu appears by chance - it's boring - can cancel by clicking Esc or elsewhere, but it happens once again without any real reason. He told me that others report the same problem. Is there a solution?
There is a registry setting that governs the operation of the Windows key. An automated FixIt and the manual instructions are available in the following article.

Wifi registration form keeps popping up
When I implemented the new Mac Mini, I accidentally chose Xfinity that my network wifi instead of border, I have actually.
Since I chose Frontier in the popup to wifi in the menu bar and entered my password, he agreed. However, whenever I restart, or sometimes at random, a window "Sign up for Xfinity" (which looks like an advertisement) keeps popping up. I chose the border once again, but when I restart, Xfinity is chosen again and jumps to the top of the window "Sign up for Xfinity.
I open network preferences and chose the border as my network name (leaving "apply to join new networks unchecked.) Yet he keeps default Xfinity when I restart.
I remember that there was once an option on MacOS 'forget this network' (or is it iOS?) I want to forget Xfinity and stop failing at it.

I have problems wiping out anti-virus from Symantec. I deleted everything that I could find has nothing to do with it, so I thought, but a windows window installation keeps popping up referring to Symantec, prompts me to insert my disc (which I don't have) and then displays an error. It does this randomly. I installed something else and he said everything is ok. Is my problem in the temporary files or I'm not pushing the right buttons?

- the exact application you are trying to uninstall, including version
- the version of Windows you have, including the service pack
- the full text of the error messages you see, without paraphrasing
- what you have done so far, in addition to details "I deleted everything I could find.

Registration-activation-page-keeps-popping-up COMCAST
Old Modem from Comcast is dead. Went and fought a Motorla SB6141 new modem.
plugged in, reset the wireless router and got the Activation Self Comcast page.
All right, said the device has been activated and saved.
I can use the internet, with the exception of a single site. Whenever I'm trying to get to www.ourtime.com, the registration activation page keeps popping up! I tried flushing my DSN and powered by the modem and the router works.
This only happens in Firefox, so I deleted all cookies and cache this app too.
Using Safari, I can get on the site.
Any help would be appreciated!OK, so I was going to try to reset Firefox and was looking for the Preferences tab.
Go to advanced and click on network settings.
Then under Connections at the top of the tab.
'Use the system proxy settings' was chosen, so I decided to try to 'automatically detect the proxy for the network settings.
Guess what? IT WORKED!
Didn't have to try to reset firefox, as the Mozilla suggests 'expert '.
Just goes to show that these 'experts' Mozilla are nothing more low-level, underpaid probably imitates, with a game of darts.

Firefox keeps "Unresponsive" at random, and then comes back after 10 to 15 seconds.
Firefox keeps "Unresponsive" at random, and then comes back after 10 to 15 seconds.
I saw this problem sent by others.
I had this problem for several weeks already and were very frustrated by the latter. I disabled all my Add ons clear all caches etc.
I've finally updated Java of V6.x to V7 and it seems to fix the problem. (I noticed that FF disabled Java due to the incompatabilities).
I'll be watching it but it seems much more quickly.Hey wombat,
If the upgrade of Java solves your problem, it would be great if you can mark this as resolved subject, so that other people with the same problem can benefit from advice that you gave.
Thank you!

The notification Windows 10: "your iCloud account settings are outdated." keeps popping up.
When I click my email on the notification appears and "Remedy" by logging in. Which does not stop the notification.
I opened up to date Apple and he tells me that everything is up to date.
How to stop windows 10 notification that my iCloud account settings are obsolete?
You use two-factor authentication to your iCloud account? If so, the only solution I could find that worked was to generate a password App specific through AppleID (https://appleid.apple.com) site and use it as a password for my Windows Mail/calendar to iCloud account.
The procedure is described in a response by G00dbyeGirl to this post to the Microsoft community.
