Windows 11 frequently minimizes all windows automatically; standard solutions have not worked.

For the past couple of days, my computer has been automatically minimizing all open windows for no apparent reason. This happens whether I'm using a browser, playing games, or running other applications. I've tried the common solutions I found online, but the problem persists. How can I fix this?

    Run a full system scan with Windows Defender or your preferred antivirus. Use tools like Malware bytes (free version) for an additional scan.
