Edit: See 3rd post and link to image for my reasons for wondering if I've had my email or computer hacked into.

This started about a week ago and is highly annoying when you go to scroll down a page and nothing happens until you click the mouse cursor on that window again. It even does it while your in the middle of typing something out.
One other oddity. I went out for a while yesterday and when I got home and turned my monitor on (I left the PC running) it was not only on the "log in" page but when I went to get to the desktop it stopped me and asked me for my password. This is despite turning off the need to log in with a password or to go to the log in page ages ago. What it wanted was my hotmail password because it seems it linked up with my email account all without my knowledge.
On top of that, when I did get to the desktop the desktop background picture had changed to an image that I was currently using on my previous PC which I also had updated to Windows 10.
Lastly, my user account has been changed to show my email address and not the username I had been using.
On more small thing I should mention. Due to MS patches breaking the theme that I like and it taking the 1 guy that does it a fair while to update it. Because of this, I have been using a small program that someone wrote that stops Windows 10 from installing any updates. Once the theme is supported by the current version I will bring remove the program and let Windows 10 install the updates. Because of this I'm sure that this isn't a Windows Update issue.
Anyone have any idea what is causing this stuff? (P.S. Yes, I've tried the usual things like
sfc /scannow and chkdsk /r and ran Avast and Malwarebytes.)
Thanks
