Hello!This issue has been happening for over 2 months now. Two CMD windows pop up, out of nowhere, and disappear just as fast (fast enough that you couldn't screenshot it even if you have your trigger fingers ready).
It is completely random. Sometimes once or twice a day, sometimes several times each hour. Please tell me that my computer isn't being hacked!
Now it happened when I was running a full-screen application which lead to landing at the desktop, and I had enough of this. I have full subscription of Avira and internet security turned up high.I think the CMD window says something about 'COM Surrogate'.Edit: I have Windows 8.1 ProEdited by Steve1989, 08 March 2017 - 07:51 PM.

Pop Up Windows Disable
Glad we could help:)DMR, Thankyou for your help. I did what you recommended and it seems to have solved the problem. I had so many updates trying to run it slowed the computer to a crawl.Yup- that can definitely be a problem. A lot of programs that have an automatic update function don't even give you any notice that they're doing it, making it hard to figure out where the problem lies.
This is especially true at Windows start-up, because many of the items that live in your system tray will do their updates when Windows firsts fires them up. If you're having slow start-ups, chances are you've got RealPlayer, QuickTime, your anti-virus program, and a slew of others all trying to 'phone home' at the same time.
