Solved Blue box top right of screen

I have been using 8.1 for about 6 mo now and have seen a blue box top right of screen come and go with different things cd in drive / flash drive plugged in / mp3 player plugged in etc. what is this notification box called where can I control it? I think something has changed the system I have not seen the Blue box (top right of screen) and it is not the blue screen of death.! for a while
any help please

Hi, as far as I understand when you insert a cd or flash drive a `blue box` appears. If this is the situation it is related to AutoPlay Settings. Open Control Panel/Hardware and sound and then AutoPlay. You can set what Windows to do when you insert media.
