Suddenly, out of the blue, whenever I click & drag an icon from one
folder to another, or use copy-paste keys, it brings up 'windows
installer' which tries to install a piece of un-related software. I
have to click 'cancel' several times before it will quit that little
exercise - then it does the copy/move.

Does it always start an installation of the same program or is the
program different every time? What is the name of the program that is
trying to install?
