Hey there, whoever's reading... I ran into a problem that started about a couple weeks ago, which still persists to this day. Hope someone can shed some light on how to fix this...
Basically, when I'm playing Warframe, at XX:05 of every hour, Warframe just minimizes and brings me out to the desktop, and I have to press the icon on the taskbar to resume whatever I was doing. At first, I thought it was just a temporary incident regarding updating Windows and such. But after some waiting while leaving the desktop open, I found out that a random window was popping up and disappearing at that time every hour, which made me believe this was the source to my problem. Trouble is, the window goes away too quickly for me to recognize what program this problematic window is related with. I've searched the internet for help and learned of something called an event viewer, but the tool was too complicated for me to figure out where I should be looking and what these reports mean. I know this is a very minor issue compared to some crazy issues of the same nature, but it has happened too much for me to pull a blind eye on it. So, I am asking for help.
Is there a way I can see a list of programs that was opened/activated? If there's no other way but the event viewer to check out what's causing the constant minimizing, can anybody give me a step by step procedure on how to find that problematic program?

Would appreciate greatly for any guidance.
