Windows 10: Can I open programs in the background in Windows 7 so they don't interrupt my current work?

Discus and support Can I open programs in the background in Windows 7 so they don't interrupt my current work? in Windows 10 Software and Apps to solve the problem; Say I need to open several programs but am working on something now. I want them to open without opening "on top" of what I'm doing. Is this possible?... Discussion in 'Windows 10 Software and Apps' started by Bob Is Interested, Jan 14, 2022.

  1. Can I open programs in the background in Windows 7 so they don't interrupt my current work?


    Say I need to open several programs but am working on something now. I want them to open without opening "on top" of what I'm doing. Is this possible? Sort of like opening a "new browser tab" in the background. Right now, if I need to open 5 programs my work is going to be interrupted 5 times. This would be great for email programs that take a while to load up all the accounts so seeing it right away is useless. And if not in Win7, what about Win10 or 11?

    :)

  3. Windows 7 Snipping Tool / (Screen Shots-Capture)

    1. In the Control Panel > Folder Options > View Tab first check ( tick ) the Show hidden files, folders and Drives and then Apply.
    2. Now navigate to C:\ Program Data \ Microsoft \ Windows \ Start Menu \ Program.
    3. Inside this Program folder , you will find the 'Accessories' folder.
    4. Drag and drop the Accessories Folder on your Start Menu or All programs.
    Did this work ?

    If all works again i suggest to go back to Step 1 and re-select Don`t show hidden files. folders and Drives then Apply. so you don`t accidentally delete some of these.
