Let's take a look. Your device will determine whether the Start menu or Start screen is the default option in the new version of Windows. On a PC, the Start menu will be turned on by default when you log into Windows On a pure touch-screen device, such as a tablet, the Start screen will be the default.
After killing the Start menu in Windows 8, Microsoft received complaints from PC users, who yearned for the traditional menu. That move opened up a large market for third-party Start menu replacements. But tablet users can find the touch-screened based Start screen easier to navigate. With Windows 10, you can have both worlds. Whether you use a PC, a tablet or a hybrid, you can easily switch between the new Start menu and the Start screen.

So I thought about what I have been running that's new to my system and I figured out my particular issue. Recently I have been running a utility called System Explorer. It's a very nice program that tells you a lot about your system processes. One thing it does at least on Window 7 is pop up a nifty "advanced" transparent tool-tip if you mouse over the tray icon or if you put your mouse in the top right corner of your screen a bigger overlay pops up over your desktop.
Today when I had a leftover pop-up menu bar and after I found this site and had a think about things I checked the system tray and noticed that System Explorer was running. Sure enough, when I closed the program, the menu bar poofed. Interesting to note that it wasn't a window. I suspect System Explorer creates and maintains a window over your entire desktop and periodically copied the entire desktop to a backbuffer so it can do its overlay trick. Sometimes, it copies bits it shouldn't.
I'm sure other programs use a similar technique to display overlays. So, before changing your settings, you might want to try closing all running applications - especially those "hiding" in the system tray. Feb 4, 5 0 10, 0.
