  I was having a problem with Photoshop Elements.  I use the disc not the download. After messing with it and stopping.  I saw the repair icon was flashing in my tray.  I figured it saw something needed. Since problems could not be with the PS disc I knew it had to be windows.   I ran it using every option, including running repairs twice. I found myself stuck in Safe Mode and had to use MSCONFIG to get out.  The icon was still flashing in the tray. [ Plus I still seem to have bugs in Photoshop. But, that is someone else's forum]
  If I clicked on the icon and it had a message why it was up, hey, that'd be great.  Might need magic for that, though.  Any real world ideas as to why it keeps trying to get my attention?  thanks.
