Phantom Facebook window during ctrl+Tab

Screenshot says it all. The only window I actually have open is Firefox, but there's a Facebook window there. Even with no other windows open of any kind, ctrl+Tab reveals the phantom Facebook window.
It happens randomly, and the only solution I've found is to reboot. If I try to close it, it crashes Explorer.


Any idea what causes it and how to stop it?

    Uninstall the Facebook PWA + check browser extensions + clear notification cache – these three steps will resolve the issue.
