Nobody can help you "fix it", as M$ is unable to run any program "in the
background" unless that program is a "service".

If you gave some some specifics about your issue instead of such arm-waving
generalities, someone might be able to help you better understand your
problem and its potential causes.

You're laboring under at least one misconception, probably more.

Somebody just took me for a ride over my English when it was just a typo.
But "potential" sir is in the future whereas the chap's problem is based on
something that was done in the past. So how can that be "potential"?

Somebody's girl friend turned him down and he took it out on me and I am
taking it out on you.

And WHO are you going to take it out on?! ;-)
