It says that the file uploaded is too large
Use the snipping tool, either the old style or the new app and crop the section you want us to see like the 2 posts above this one.

I don't see one in my windows search bar. I also have mine set to just show the icon. You can do that by right clicking the taskbar, move your mouse to search, let it hover there, then chose 1 of the 3 options.

I see the black box and I also see a "g" there. Does that "g" always show as well? I don't have either of those in my search box. Just the magnifying/search symbol, what ever that icon is called.

I'm wondering if you have some sort of malware on your system.
The "g" is because im from denmark and the danish word for search is søg

It is probably associated with your mouse and/or touch pad devices.

Select settings and then "Devices"
Click on Mouse and Keyboard and Pen, and , if it is available, Touchpad.
Here it may depend on you particular computer, but:
It should show some information and name of the type of touch pad, etc, your computer has.
Click on settings and in the next box you should see a tab that says "Tapping".
Open that tab and , where it says "Three Finger Tap" and "Four Finger Tap". - Uncheck them all and "Apply"
Alternatively, if iot is how your computer is setup, in devices go straight to the "Touchpad" and follow the above.

You may have to experiment with the paths a litle, as they can vary.
