This annoying pop up started yesterday, it cannot be stopped. It blinks like a turning signal now. I looked everywhere for a fix or info on how do I get rid of it but I couldn't find anything. I cant even find the source of this startup on my PC.
Did this occurred to anybody else? What to do?
Thank you!

Is this happening on an Acer monitor or Acer Laptop?
If so...likely you can find a solution to get rid of it one of the links in Google Search.

Acer monitor.
All posts found by the search refer to edit the StartUp, well I dont have that in the StartUp, nowhere to find anything with Acer or empowering technologies in my PC. Odd.
Today it stopped but it will come back eventually.
thank you.

Did you allow AdwCleaner to remove what it found? If not, rerun and allow it to do that.
As to the popup....at least you now know the source. Try Acer forum to find a solution.
OR...explore the settings in the popup. Not sure...but...looks like you can choose Auto adjust
and then exit.

I cant adjust anything, is not an active popup, mouse pointer will only hover over it and no keyboard key will change anything. This is so odd...
good news is that there is 24 hours now with no popup, fingers crossed.
thank you!

It's possible...same as with my monitor....that software installed on the computer is not compatible with the
monitor's controls. I sometimes accidentally hit one of the four buttons on my monitor and I have to wait
a minute or so for the popup to go away. Neither my mouse or keyboard are recognized by the popup.
Luckily....the default auto setting works just great.

adrian 23....start your own topic. Be sure to mention what security programs you have scanned
with such as AdwCleaner. I'm locking this topic.
