I suspect this is something that may have become corrupt in Windows 10. It seemed to start several BI updates ago. I thought maybe the next stable update might fix it but it didn't. I dreaded reinstalling BI to try and cure it but the reinstall went very smoothly, however I still have the problem. I'm just curious if anyone else has encountered this.
When moving through the BI alert list, which I do very often, I use the BI console. It is very erratic, using the up or down arrows, if I arrow up or down it jumps back to where it was before I arrowed up or down. I can do 3 or 4 quick arrows up or down and it returns to where it was. Sometimes it will behave for 5 or 10 movements ok, then start again. I have tried changing the sort order, changed icon size in alerts list, tried changing from my bluetooth keyboard to a usb keyboard, no joy. I may be forgetting other things I've tried. I do not see this problem using UI3.
At this point it is just very annoying, I think at this time I would rather live with it than reinstall Windows. I haven't noticed anyone posting with this issue but sometimes it depends on the way you word your search.
 
Happens to me too in Blue Iris local console. This isn't the kind of thing that would happen due to corruption. This is some kind of asynchronous event (like a clip starting to play) causing a clip to be selected in the clip list viewer. Looks like it might happen when a clip finishes loading. And possibly at other times too. Tell Blue Iris support.
