  2. Taskbar bug: switching to another window -will not appear at the front


    Follow either of these steps to fix the issue with the Active window hiding behind.

    Method 1:
    I suggest you to disable window by hovering over it with the mouse and check if it helps. To do so I suggest you to try the below given steps and check if it helps:

    1. Press Windows key + X key and click on Control Panel.
    2. Select or click Ease of Access.
    3. Click or tap onEase of Access Centre.
    4. Click on Make the Mouse Easier to Use was uncheck Activate Window by hovering over it with the mouse.
    5. Check if issue is resolved.
    Method 2:
    I would suggest you to completely uninstall the touchpad driver and reinstall it. Kindly follow the below given steps.

    1. Press “Windows key + X” and click on “Device Manager”.
    2. In the list of devices, you should see the touchpad drivers.
    3. Right click on the device and then select "Uninstall".
    4. In the uninstall dialog, make sure you select the option to delete the driver package from the system. This causes the driver package installed earlier to be deleted.
    5. In the Action menu of Device manager, select “Scan for Hardware changes” option. This will cause the device driver to be reinstalled. Once the driver is installed, close all windows and restart the computer.

    Second monitor works but is black.

    Hello Oliver,

    There are several factors that may cause this issue. To better assist you, we suggest that you answer the following questions:

    • What is your connection? Are you using a splitter? Have you tried connecting one to VGA and the other to DVI port or switch the connections?
    • How about switching the monitors around in Display settings?
    • What happen when you press Windows + P key and choose a different option?
    • Have you tried updating your
      graphic card driver
      and run the Hardware troubleshooter? (Troubleshooting> Hardware and Sound> Hardware and Devices)
    • What other troubleshooting steps have you done so far?

    Looking forward to your response.
