A lot of viruses and other malware will disguise themselves as legitimate processes. Download malwarebytes and run it to see if it picks up anything.

Yeah, it didn't detect anything. When I click "Open file location" it takes me to the legit Discord.exe it's also not detected on VirusTotal and it's signed by Discord the company. After multiple clean reinstalls (uninstalling + deleting all Discord files from %appdata% local and roaming) it still seems to be happening. Like... there is no way this isn't some rare Discord bug or malware. And I would really like to know which one it is, haha. After talking with some friends and family - NONE of them have this thing happening on their machines.
Discord has been consistently getting more and more unbearable.
