Recently bought a PowerPro laptop that exhibits weird behavior that is unacceptable. Basically you start an action, e.g. create a new folder and then rename it. Creates the new folder fine but then you try to rename it. It highlights the old name “New Folder” and when you start typing to replace with the new name it’ll close the option and the old “New Folder” remains. And it doesn’t save whatever you started to type.
Another example, you right click on bottom toolbar, window options will flash open and then is gone. If the window happens to remain open and you select task manager, that may flash open and then close.
To monitor what the system is doing, I’ve used “What’s my computer doing” showing all activities (system etc.). It shows during this behavior that svchost.exe is running on the “hard disk”.
Does anyone know if “What’s my computer doing” is smart enough to know the difference between a hard drive and a SSD? (The system is installed on an SSD.)
Also behavior occurs while in safe mode too, no difference.
I’ve sent it back to the manufacturer and they didn’t observe the behavior while I can’t avoid it.
I’m stumped.
Any thoughts?
