Anyone know what this is and why it keeps popping up? I close it and it opens back up everytime I switch tabs. Is it something to do with plug-ins? I use the CADtools plug-in. I have not done any recent updates that I am aware of.
Hi there,
Sorry to hear about your experience. Resetting preferences should help in this scenario. Would you mind sharing version of the OS & Adobe Illustrator?
Also, please try following steps below to reset preferences manually once:

The symbol is usually used in third party plugins. So this might be linked to CADtools.
Can you check if your version of CADtools is compatible with your version of Illustrator?

Did you update to latest version of CADtools. I have 12.1.5 on Mac 10.13.6, working good
Try
Window >.>CADTools>>Hide all Cadtools panels.
Did you try resetting your prefs?

So I just updated from 12.1.2 to 12.1.5, same thing. I then reset my preferences as suggested but still happens. At this point it's just a nuisance and I'll just hide it in a corner.

**Please note that resetting preferences will remove all the custom settings and Illustrator will launch with default settings. This way all your old settings will be saved in .old folders and Illustrator will recreate new folders with default settings.
Let us know if it helps.
