Every so often, my mouse will freeze, and my computer will automatic pop this up, and it'll do it several times. I've scanned for viruses. Nothing. . Updated drivers, rebooted, etc. Of course, if I have multiple screens open, they'll be on that as well. WTF is going on? It is definitely the mouse. . I'll unplug it or turn it off, nothing. . Plug it back in, and it happens constantly.

That is the Alt+Tab screen (or Ctrl+Alt+Tab) usually only available from your keyboard. This is not normally a mouse function, but can be assigned as such with something like AutoHotkey. Do you use that?

I just even tried doing a System Restore, and my PC is still acting weird. I'm wondering if it's MS Edge, honestly.

Well, something is mimicking pressing Ctrl+Alt+Tab. Press that combo on your keyboard and you'll see what I mean.

That screen doesn't even come up anymore now. . It's other crap going on. . . I never thought I would say this, but I'm seriously considering going back to Windows 10 for a while. Unless it's something to do with Edge. I need to try and use Chrome for a bit and see if I get the same results.

Another stupid irritation. When I have tabs going, especially live stream/video going, Edge will refresh, and i'll have to restart the video all over again. . . . .. . This is getting ridiculous!

Every so often, my mouse will freeze, and my computer will automatic pop this up, and it'll do it several times. I've scanned for viruses. Nothing. . Updated drivers, rebooted, etc. Of course, if I have multiple screens open, they'll be on that as well. WTF is going on? It is definitely the mouse. . I'll unplug it or turn it off, nothing. . Plug it back in, and it happens constantly.

    Still assembled, still runs. Haven't turned it on for 13 years?
Well, something is mimicking pressing Ctrl+Alt+Tab. Press that combo on your keyboard and you'll see what I mean.
If something is mimicking alt tab, could it be a hot key on the computer that triggers this? Accidentally pressed or stuck. Or a virus?

I would think it would be resolved by a refresh but would virus scan first. If a refresh or clean install doesn’t solve it then it could be a hardware issue (faulty key press eg).

Run malwarebytes and a general av program as well.

I think you need to see exactly what you are doing and what keys you are pressing when it happens. I agree with the others full malware and av scan first. maybe an in place repair or sfc/DISM before doing anything more complicated

whenever I click (single click) on a video, it makes it full screen. . . . .. Is there a such thing as a calibration issue? Maybe my mouse/monitors aren't seeing eye to eye
