I'm using Windows 10 and I can't find a version number in the GUI

Research direction

Start by reproducing the unexpected GUI opening on Windows 10 and record the GUI version, which the report does not provide. Trace when the client launches itself and identify the trigger; done means the cause is documented and the unintended openings no longer occur.
