balloon and icon in system tray!

Please! Please! Can anybody out there help me with this problem?

I have a big white balloon that comes up in my system tray, every time I
load up the
computer. This has only been coming up in the last few weeks or so.

The balloon shows a yellow triangle with a black exclamation mark inside.
The balloon points to a square turquoise application icon with a red circle
and a red line across it diagonally, on a white background. This sits on
the bottom left of the turquoise application icon.

In the balloon, it states,

"Windows has blocked some start-up programmes. Windows blocks programs that
require permission to run when Windows starts. Click to view blocked
programs."

I did this and it showed me only one program that was blocked, which was my
malwarebytes program. This has never happened to me before. So I clicked
that program to unblock it but when I rebooted, the balloon and icon
reappeared on the system tray.

Can anybody please tell me how I stop this ugly icon and the balloon coming
up,
each time I reboot?

I appreciate any help given.

Thank you in advance.

I have not added anything. The only thing I can think of, is that it must
of been a Windows Update and therefore this balloon and icon, now show.

So what do I have to do to stop it coming up and showing on the system tray?

I do not want to do anything that I shouldn't, so I need exact instructions
on how to deal with this please.

Pay no attention to this worthless troll. Do yourself a favor and killfile
him.

Try to boot into safe mode and see if you still get the popup. My guess is
you have a bug that's preventing it from opening.

Okay. Sorry to appear a bit stupid, I am not computer literate. How do I
boot up in safe mode?

Reboot your computer and tap the F8 button before Windows starts to load. A
menu should appear. Select SafeMode.

"Don't pick a fight with an old man.
If he is too old to fight, he'll just kill you."

 

That’s Windows Defender popup box telling you that a program is being
blocked from running.
Just click on the block program and tell Defender you want it to run or not
run.
