I am sure it is another display driver bug with, but please fix it. Whether it is Edge or the display driver, please fix it.

    I get the same issue on my Surface Book and it's rather annoying.

    It's a hardware issue with the latch system (I'm sure along with the software detection) where the computer assumes you've detached the tablet from the keyboard therefore displaying "Autorotate On".

    You can see this in action if you enable automatic switching from desktop to tablet mode. You'll see that whenever the "Autorotate On" icon pops up the UI switches to tablet mode.

    To try what I've tested go to:

    1.   "Settings" 

    2.   "System"

    3.   "Tablet Mode"

    4.   When this device automatically switches tablet mode on or off → "Don't ask me and always switch"

    Microsoft needs to fix this ASAP!

    There doesn't seem to be a pattern for me.  Checking for updates in the Store app the way you described above does not reproduce it either.

    I have this annoying pop up as well - on both brand new (3 days old) 512 i7s.  Auto Rotate On appears randomly in upper left of the clipboard.

    Let's fix this MS!
