The icon (see pix) has no description, no right click options, nothing. Anybody recognizes this?

Looks like my computer slowed down so checking what is happening...

You can probably download procexp and look in it for the icon or look at the output off
Get-CimInstance -Classname Win32_Process | ft name, commandline in powershell and look for applications you don't recognize.

When does the tooltip say when you hover over it with your mouse cursor?
