When closing down my laptop the following message pops up...Toshiba flashcards app is preventing shutdown.  I have never seen this before various "new" items were downloaded in an automatic update.  I uninstalled it in programmes, but it still keeps popping up...help!

    Hi,

    This might be occur if the app is enable on startup. If you've uninstalled it but the issue is persisting, try removing it from startup. Follow the steps below:

    1. On the search box, type msconfig the hit Enter.
    2. Click the Startup tab.
    3. Find the Toshiba Flashcards from the list then tick the checkbox next to it.
    4. Click OK then restart your computer.

    Let us know the outcome so we can provide further assistance.

    Sorry for the delayed response. If Toshiba Flashcards is not in the list, try looking for the Toshiba Function Key Main from Startup and disable it. If the issue still persists, you can check the answer of sdmike1974 in this thread that was found helpful in resolving similar issue.

    Keep us in the loop with the result.
