Disappearing programs?

I've been seeing programs that seem like they disappear, and now there's a clearer example.

Yesterday, I downloaded the battle.net program which had previous been installed and had disappeared. It ran a long time getting various games ready to play.

Then I played overwatch a bit. I later ran it again, and this time at the start of the first match, the game crashed with an 'error in graphic driver' and I couldn't use any program on the system.

(That'd be nice to fix... I only just got the new motherboard, graphics card and drivers going 2 days ago).

So I decided to just reboot and re-run it. After a reboot - battle,net is nowhere to be found. Not in installed programs, a search only finds the install file.

I just re-installed it, it's running, but is not in installed programs. Ideas?
 
You mention you have a new system.
I assume it is not overclocked.
Have you tested the memory for a few hours with memtest86 ?
With new hardware it is good to run memtest for 8 hours to 24 hourd long.
When no errors, you know the memory is good at the memory speed you tested it.

Did you just installed the 1709 update ?

It's not a new system, it's a "repaired" system. Go see his thread on his never ending struggles with his computer.
 
Well, all that Blizzard had to say was that it might be a 'permissions' issue; they had nothing more to say about the theory of the cause. They suggested a few actions such as creating a 'secondary login' they say is needed and a new user with administrator privileges. Shouldn't this be a simpler issue?
