After starting up or restarting my HP 15s-eq2xxxx laptop, I see my usual background, but then there's a brief message that pops up. It disappears if I hit enter again. I'm running Windows 11 version 25H2. I've scanned my laptop with the built-in virus detector, but it found nothing. I'm planning to share a video to show what I mean. Any ideas on how to resolve this?

Definitely looks suspicious! Before freaking out too much, have you tried any third-party malware scanners? Sometimes built-in antivirus tools don’t catch everything. Hitman Pro is a good option to run afterward, especially if you think it’s a tricky virus. Also, reset your passwords just in case!
Yikes, that sounds creepy! Make sure your data is backed up because it’s better to be safe than sorry. Personally, I’d wipe the OS entirely and start fresh. As for the unusual message, that's not something that comes with Windows by default. If you have anything important, try to recover it before the reinstall.
That message you're seeing isn't normal for Windows; it might be malware. I recommend backing up your data and doing a complete reinstall of Windows. It's a pain, but it's better to be safe. Just don't rely solely on antivirus programs; they often miss serious threats.
