TestComplete opening random windows programs
Hi Brainstrust.
Just wondering if anyone else has experienced/has a fix for a weird 'feature' I have been experiencing with TC.
When using TC, I will randomly get windows programs opening up (Microsoft Store, Calculator and/or Settings - or varying combinations of).
This can be from performing a test run, opening a project, closing TC down. I have even seen it do it while object spy was finding things.
Has anyone else experienced this? Are there strange gremlins in my system?
I am running win10, and have the latest version of TC (has been happening on many TC14.X versions).
Its not causing any real issue, just an annoyance.
see if the solution in this thread helps

To sum up the workarounds:
- Disable the Superfetch service.
- Disable all background apps in Start > Settings > Privacy > Background apps.
- If you do not need to test Windows Store apps, disable TestComplete option Enable support for testing Windows Store applications in Tools > Options > Engines > General Options and restart TestComplete.
