      I’m not sure if this is a bug or if I inadvertently enabled some debug mode through a keystroke or something, as I just started seeing this today. At some point, a debug window opened containing the following information:

      Reading configuration…
      Building plugin menu entries…
      done.
      Initialization finished.

      Now, whenever I start Notepad++, that window pops up with that info in it.

      The debug info from the ? menu is:

      Notepad++ v8.4.2 (64-bit)
      Build time : May 29 2022 - 16:47:30
      Path : C:\Program Files\Notepad++\notepad++.exe
      Command Line : $COMMAND_LINE_PLACEHOLDER$
      Admin mode : OFF
      Local Conf mode : OFF
      Cloud Config : OFF
      OS Name : Windows 10 Enterprise (64-bit)
      OS Version : 20H2
      OS Build : 19042.1826
      Current ANSI codepage : 1252
      Plugins :
      mimeTools (2.8)
      NppConverter (4.4)
      NppExport (0.4)
      XMLTools (3.1.1.12)

      At seemingly random times (including sometimes when I start Notepad++), a couple of extra windows appear inside the main window in addition to the work area. (See screen shot.) I can close those windows, but they keep coming back at seemingly random times.

        this screenshot reminds me of this issue with software like Slack, could this be your problem as well?
