Search Box Pops Up Randomly When Online
I am operating Windows 7 Dell Laptop.
Occasionally, the search box randomly
pops up, for no reason. Does anyone
have any ideas for a solution? Thanks,
Carl

The search box randomly pops up, for no reason.
I am not referring TO a pop-up. The "Start
Button" search box pops up when I try to
type, from time to time. Can anyone give
me any ideas as to how to get the box to
stop popping up? Thank you,
Carl

Their is a chance that you are touching the Windows Flag Key unknowingly.
At times I do this when I start typing very fast.

I have this issue too, but it's not just the windows search box, it's mostly on Chrome & sometimes even on Thunderbird.
...and this is the 2nd PC this has happened on
If anyone has any insights, I'd love to know.
