Why would it so aggressively keep trying to access my system, nearly non ~stop? It's being blocked by my Windows 10 firewall which I never screw around with, have maintained on default settings for 20+ years of Windows use & has never before come up as an "issue." andamaintain

Same as JD Mason , my controlled access feature always blocks the change in memory and so far the only remedy is to delete it or allow the change . Please help

Why does this image attempt to change /devices/harddisk10 ? Seems like the process wants to root into the fs. Nope- my gpu needs nothing to do with anything that low level on my block device; my gpu has its own ram to muck
