Thanks for all the help and I hope this helps someone else. As I said before, if you are having the same problem I would start your own thread and ask if this is what you should do. I did the same and I have not had the pop up for several days now. Get-BitsTransfer -AllUsers | Remove-BitsTransfer They then suggest he enter the following in powershell to 'get rid of the (non-Windows update downloads)': My results were different from what his were but I had a few entries although I can't remember what they were now. This should give you a list of 'what is downloading from where'. Get-BitsTransfer -AllUsers | select -ExpandProperty FileList | Select -ExpandProperty RemoteName

Then copy and paste the following code in there: I did some more searching and found a thread on a forum at http /On the second page of that thread they suggest clicking start - typing powershell - right clicking it - running it as administrator. I am posting what worked for me but I'm not sure this would fix it for everyone who encounters this problem and I would start your own thread to make sure people who know more about this than me think it's a good idea for you to do this. OK, I finally got the window to stop popping up. I appreciate any help you folks can give me. This is kind of embarrassing for me because I am currently studying for my A+ certification and I can't figure this out. I am running Windows 10 Version 3 Build 14393 on a Lenovo Z70 laptop. I am thinking that it could be something trying to update some of those programs that were installed but I am not sure and I still want to get rid of it because if it happens while I am playing a game it causes the game to minimize for several seconds and puts it in windowed mode. I searched for that on google and found that it is a windows process but the file could be infected so I searched my computer for that file but it's not on my computer. I did manage to see something one time when it popped up, it said bitsadmn.exe. It happens so fast that I am unable to get a screen shot from it or see if anything comes up in task manager when it happens. Every hour or so two command prompt windows will pop up one after the other for less than a second. I think most of the bad stuff has been removed but I am still having one issue.

I then ran a Malewarebytes premium scan and it found a bunch of stuff which I removed. I then ran a full scan with Windows Defender and it found a trojan which I removed. That got a lot of the junk off my computer.

Because of the amount of programs I decided to do a system restore. There was a bunch of new programs installed on my computer. As I was installing it it was taking a long time and I got suspicious so I stopped it. A few days ago I attempted to download a freeware program.
