Every now and then, starting a couple of days ago, I find that my computer, after sitting idle, will start to refresh the desktop and the task bar every few seconds, which makes it impossible to use.

I've looked up fixes online, but they haven't been helpful yet. One thing I haven't done is to open the Task Manager and start closing processes one at a time to see if I can figure out what is causing the problem (It's only happened twice, and I got frustrated and rebooted). But before I do that, I was just curious if anyone else had run across this and knows how to fix it. I guess I may have to eventually do a restore if I can't figure it out.

i think it will be good idea to download media creator tool of windows 11 and swap it on your system replacing your current OS windows 10. many users find windows 11 better and works in most hardware fine.

In youtube you can find better ways to update it to windows 11.

Note: Windows 11 is said to have better gaming experience.

Have you tried the solutions from this article? Try to run System Maintenance Troubleshooter once, hopefully your issue will get resolved.

As for transferring your photo software from your old Windows 10 laptop without a disk drive, have you considered using an external hard drive or USB drive to transfer the files? You could also try uploading the photo suite to a cloud storage service like Google Drive or Dropbox and downloading it onto your new laptop. Hopefully, one of these options will work for you!
