I've just started using Edge with chromium, and I've immediately noticed a problem. And literally, I just started using it day before yesterday. While I'm using it, every several minutes - less than 15 minutes or so - another, smaller window - not a tab, not the usual popup type window either - will inexplicably open right over the browser's main window. Popup blocking AND adblocking are enabled, so this shouldn't be happening right? Plus, the strange popup window that isn't a popup window seems to be duplicating the website which had been open in one of my tabs; even after I closed the tab in question, the problem persists. What is happening exactly, and how do I stop it if I can?

@HotCakeX I have attached a screen shot of the odd popup window, I'll try resetting it and see if that helps

@HotCakeX Resetting the settings did nothing to stop the odd popup window

I happened to have my taskbar unhidden via mouseover when the odd window popped up again; apparently it's popping up as an actual, entire and separate browser window. Though, whereas the Actual browser's window is near the top of my taskbar, the odd popup one appears at the bottom of the taskbar every time it shows up. Also, no. I hadn't installed anything for quite a while before, using the microsoft site even, I downloaded the current Edge with chromium and installed it.
