    Chrome Minimize/Maximize/Close don't work with touch


    Hello! We have an odd problem and I can't find any reference to anyone who has had this or a setting that might cause it.

    My daughter's HP Envy X360 has a touch screen that works beautifully... EXCEPT it will not work with the minimize/maximize/close buttons on Chrome. Please note:

    - They work fine if she uses the touchpad on the laptop.
    - The button right next to them to change Chrome users works fine.
    - They do NOT work if she uses the touchpad to minimize Chrome so those three buttons are in the center of the screen. It is literally only those three buttons, regardless of where on the touchscreen they are.
    - It is NOT the upper right corner of the screen itself. The minimize/maximize/close buttons work fine for most other programs when they are being displayed.
    - Chrome is up-to-date with the most recent version... and the other touchscreen laptops in the house (not HP) work fine with the same version.
    - It is no different in Incognito mode. The only extensions she has are the basic Google-provided ones like Hangouts, Google Docs, and Adobe Acrobat (which my computer also has and mine works fine).

    I said "most" other programs because she thinks there's another program that has done it, although all others seem to work fine now.

    It seems to me that this is either a Chrome bug that conflicts with whatever drivers her HP uses, or else it is a setting somewhere designed to prevent you from accidentally closing Chrome, but I cannot find that any such setting exists! Any ideas?

    :)

    PROBLEM WITH MAXIMIZED/MINIMIZED SCREENS

    You are referring to Windows Explorer, not Internet Explorer, right?

    > file will be minimized

    Do you mean "normal" (not filling the screen) as opposed to minimized to the Taskbar?

    Chrome Minimize/Maximize/Close don't work with touch

    Minimize/Maximize command

    My minimize or maximize icon does not work once I use view side by side. I cannot get out of side by side without closing down the document.
