Help Please To Remove Unwanted Pic Of Disc

[Bathsheba]

on my desktop.

I did some updates a couple of days ago, which have left a picture of a disc on the bottom right of the screen (not in the bar at the bottom, sorry but I don't know the correct terminology), but on the actual screen. It's says Data Disc on the top of the picture, + Cyberlink on the bottom, + some numbers 0.02/4.38GB.
It's about 2"x1"
Now I do have Cyberlink, but haven't actually used it yet on this laptop.

Thanks in advance + anticipation.
Oh, nearly forgot....Chrome ;)

New ones don't always get seen there for ages. not sure why.



So is it a shortcut, or an application/programme or a folder/directory or what ?

Unsure why a right click and delete option doesn't work, but know what it is first.

[Bathsheba]

Hi OG. Right clicking on it does nothing, neither does left clicking, although I've just hovered over it + a window opened for Cyberlink with disc burning opetions on it.

[Old_Geezer]

Apologies, I know nothing of cyberlink.

If I had to guess I'd guess you had it running permanently in the background and it is superimposing this way of using it onto your wallpaper. Try finding cyberlink in task manager and stopping it.

[Old_Geezer]

If that works then next time you run it have a look at the cyberlink options. Maybe you can switch off the visuals.

Whoa whoa there!! Steady on OG! Where do I find task manager? Windows 8.1

I think you have somehow set Cyberlink to burn something to a disk and it is waiting for the next instruction.

Similar to the 'print queue' message you get when your printer can't print for some reason.

[Old_Geezer]

control alt delete, wait for the menu, choose task manager

[hc4361]

What version of Windows are you running?

[Bathsheba]

said up there ^ ^ hc, 8.1

Quick way to get task manager is to right click on the windows icon bottom left and click Task Manager.

Does the disc burning options include 'cancel'?

[Bathsheba]

Will have a look, hc,...brb >>>>

[Bathsheba]

Yep....it actually was a Copy Disc window, ...I clicked Cancel, +all it did was remove the page + I was back to the desktop.
Gonna try + find task manager.....send a search party in for me if I'm not back here in 10 mins....

Is there a CD loaded

[Bathsheba]

No Tambo, no disc in.

Ok, found Task Manager, + found Background Processes with (52)...like that.
Cyberlink was in that list.

I was trying to give you confidence, Baths :(

[hc4361]

Have you disabled Cyberlink now?

[Bathsheba]

No, nobody told me to disable it! 'ang on, I'm going back in.....

[hc4361]

Well what did you do once you got in to task manager?
