@brettcannon I found a solution (or work around) and the root cause of this. I was right when I said it was started since Windows 11H2 upgrade. Apparently, Windows use now the new “Windows Terminal” as a default console application. When I change it back to “Console Host” (in Windows settings) these popups are gone.

Maybe it is some issue in the “Windows Terminal”. I’m sharing that here in case someone will face this issue in the future…

They are console windows that open and close. Maybe related to the Python compiler or the Linter. When I turn off the Python extension they are gone. I will record the screen soon
