Hello @willtheoct, can you reproduce this issue with the current Steam client beta?
This might be related to "Restrict a workaround that prevents a crash on Nvidia GPUs to only activate when we detect an Nvidia GPU. Side-effects for this workaround include window flashing and focus stealing when a steam window is closed, which should no longer affect Intel/AMD users.` in the 2023-06-05 Steam client beta.
It appears fixed in the steam beta. Thank you, great work
Nothing extracted yet.
Your system information
Please describe your issue in as much detail as possible:
I expect to use my computer with steam running in the background, but not popping up windows, nor popping them up during gameplay. Instead, a small window with no title or rendering, but a border and close buttons appears, sometimes every 15 seconds, sometimes every 2 hours. It closes itself within a couple of seconds, but it brings windows out of focus while gaming, too.
