I don't know. Frequently as I shut down the messages appear to not turn cpt
off... as updates are being installed. I don't know how to stop this.

Modify the Windows Update settings in Control Panel so that updates atren't
installed automatically without your approval.

Whatever happened caused a duplicate set of my folders to be created. Both
sets are receiving any new mail that arrives. Both sets contain all old data
as well.

Sounds like a corrupt mail profile, often caused by importing or by copying
one PST over the top of another with the same name. Create a new mail
profile.
