  1. Audio cuts off when switching focus to a new application window


    As the subject states, I'm having an especially bizarre audio bug where when I switch from any one application window to another, the audio cuts for a brief second and I've done research on the cause for 3 weeks with no solution in sight. Everything has suggested disabling enhancements in the audio section and I've done that for every single registered device. I'm hoping someone else can pin point the cause.

    :)

  4. Audio cuts off when switching focus to a new application window

    Switch Window Focus using a Batch File/CMD

    I have a Windows application that when launched with the Task Scheduler on start up does not have focus (i.e. I cannot execute keyboard commands in the application until I click
    the application into focus). Focus is on the Desktop.

    The application is started through Task Scheduler as it required Highest Privileges to launch (bypassing UAC prompt).

    There only seems to be third party applications available which support automatic switch to the application *i.e. switch focus.

    Is there a was I can switch the focus to the application? - like a batch file?
