    Strange folder appears listed under desktop

    I think you're fine. I think you've just noticed the UsersFilesFolder , a virtual folder ( like Network, This PC, etc. ) that seems to mirror the contents of the user's profile folder. Quick Test:
    • In the EXplorer Address bar or a Run dialog, type: shell:UsersFilesFolderEnter
    If that command opens the same folder you juist noticed, everything is fine. It's normally always visible when viewing the rooted Desktop in Explorer:

    It has this special icon:

    The icon can be shown or hidden on the Desktop via:
    • Settings >Personalization > Themes and clicking the Desktop icons settings link

  3. Strange floating panel with symbols & numbers randomly appears

    For several months, with no apparent reason or trigger, this strange floating window has appeared - its almost always in the way and sometimes is hard to get rid of. There is no way to close it, its not clickable - I seem to be only able to get it to go away by tabbing between programs. I have tried searching round to see if anyone else has this but have not found any reference to it. Hoping someone else may know what this is!

    First attachment shows the object... the second one shows it hovering about over my desktop.
