  1. Can't click anything outside "focused/active" window


    Hi, I have this intermittent problem where at some point during my session, I won't be able to click anything outside certain focused window. For instance, if I had task manager opened right before restarting the computer, and I couldn't click anything outside of it unless I used tab+windows key and selected another app/window. It's rather weird because it doesn't seem to happen with every application and even with applications for which it occurs, the issue isn't there after restarting my computer. It's driving me crazy, it's a brand new computer I just built and I've never experienced this issue before on my other windows computers.

    Windows 10 Mail App Focused Problem

    Hi Larry,

    To turn off the Focused & other feature in the Mail app, please follow the steps below:

    • Open your Mail app
    • Click on the Settings icon (looks like a gear).
    • Click Options, and search for the layout section.
    • Under layout, find Focused Inbox. Select Don't sort messages and then hit
      Save.
    We'll look forward to your reply.
