Why is my status bar going crazy

[AC Question]

I have an HTC One M9 edge. My notification bar (status bar) keeps going up and doing forbidding me from using my phone properly.
Many pages suggested that I uninstall the newly installed apps because it's probably one of them that is causing this issue. However, and since I haven't had the cell phone for a long time, I would probably have to uninstall all of my apps (that I installed once I bought it) to figure out where the problem is. Could there be a better way to identify the problem ?

Welcome to the forums! I remember reading some reports about a similar issue. For some people the culprit was Clean Master, or some other app by Cheetah Mobile. If you have any of these apps installed in your phone disable it and see if the problem persists.
