Well, I've just applied some updates to Windows 8.1, and now I've got a square black box at the left about 1/3 of the height of my screen telling me to "Swipe in from the edge to go back to the last app you were using. Tip: Begin with your finger outside of your screen." and with a large orange arrow helpfully showing me the direction from the edge of my screen inwards.
The stupid thing won't go away, but if I click my mouse in it the arow gets a bit animated. Not sure how to get rid of it, other than reboot.
