Open programs minimizing randomly

I'm getting the user to turn off his bluetooth keyboard and use a corded usb keyboard. I'll let you know how I go.

ok but cant hurt to check the file system too.

I've just run it now and it's come back clean. I'll keep working on it but may not be able to get to the machine until the weekend when it's not being used.

I'm going to give CCleaner a go, third time lucky. :-P

Ok, I've let the machine run all weekend after running CCleaner, which came up clean. I have disable the VAIO Gate software and the VAIO updater to see what happens.
I've only just turned the updater off as the user told me the minimizing was still happening.

Did you do a clean boot? https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/929135/
