Hi, actually the culprit is Safari/Mac. This morning I had no Adobe programs open and I got another alert, Web Inspector nbagent jSContext. Googling that lead me to this and to a solution: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/254764219
Safari Develop menu: "Click the Develop menu and select the third item down that just show you computer name. There is a setting to automatically show Web Inspector for JSContext. See if yours is checked and switch it off."

Well now I googled the webkit. I have a clue, small though concerning this issue. Are you suggesting I should just turn off notifications? This has never happened before - I would be glad to know the reason.

I haven't deleted it. I have Apple and Webkit is by Google: "Apple-developed browser engine that is primary utilized in the Safari..." "...Webkit related stuff is part of Safari... Don't remove it."

Actually any Adobe app opened results with this same alert boost. Specially after the computer has been opened after "sleep". The screen is full of alerts even only if Acrobat is opened.

maybe adobe support can check tour computer and help. there are 3 ways to contact adobe; chat, phone and twitter:
chat:
use a browser that allows popups and cookies
and click here, https://helpx.adobe.com/contact.html?rghtup=autoOpen
in the chat field (lower right), type AGENT
be patient, it can take quite a while to reach a human.
phone:
https://helpx.adobe.com/contact/phone.html
twitter:
tweet @AdobeCare
p.s. if you're contacted by anyone (via email or private message), it's much more likely to be a scammer than an adobe representative. ie, double check for an employee badge if contacted in the forums and look for an adobe.com domain in the email address if you click reply to an email. then check again and be very suspicious. any other method of contacting (or offering to contact you) is almost certainly a scam, https://community.adobe.com/t5/using-the-community-discussions/staying-safe-in-the-adobe-support-com...

Ok. I contacted Adobe Support and they remotely checked my computer twice. They then said I should contact Apple support since Safari is their app. Now I'm in the middle of that. The alerts stopped by the way when clearing the cache of Safari. That's a little help perhaps even though it doesn't solve the problem.

yes, clearing safari cache helps for a while. But killing every adobe cloud proccess is the only way to stop this web inspector windows from overfloating your macbook 🙂

So I do not really think safari is the culprit. It's just adobe suit that triggers the misbehavior of rogue webkit, anyway.

Thank you very much to you too! I had the problem for a week too. And of course I googled and found you here. And read along. Amazing that so many users must have the same problem and hardly anything can be found about it. So thanks again, Katja! Greetings from Berlin! :heart_suit:
