    closes the back side app when pressing the cross button on foreground app


    The detail of the issue is that suppose I open two apps which are chrome and MS excel, where the excel is on the front and chrome is on the backside ie. opened together. But frequently what happens is that when I press the cross button to close the excel, it closes the chrome but not the excel. I found this bug in this win10 and is ridiculous. So is there any method to solve it?

    :)

    Yep, just realize theres no emoticons
    And i dunno its from the app or something, sometimes i need to refresh several times to show the content

    One more please add app update notification from the app or button for reporting bugs or suggestion


    One suggestion, may you put menu on dropdown on top corner so we can move without pressing back again and again


    Thank you

    Music continues to play even on close of the app(using cross button over app) in LUMIA BLACK update

    Hi, I am user in India, last night I have updated my LUMIA 920 from Amber to Black and found some new features, one of the feature is you can close the app by tapping the cross button (available when you hold the physical back button of the phone). Now when
    you close the music app(default app in phone) of the phone the music remains in play ideally music play back should not continue when you close the respective app in the phone.



    Step:-

    1. On the home screen tap on the music button.

    2. Play some songs in it.

    3. Now hold the back button of the phone i.e the physical button.

    4. You will find the cross button over the app.

    5. Close the app observe the music will continue to play.



    Note:- From usability point of view this is incorrect the playback should get stopped.



    If you do not allow to shut the music playback then how user can stop the music theard in background other than pause button of the player. ?

    closes the back side app when pressing the cross button on foreground app

    An app is suddenly running in background instead of foreground as it should

    I run Windows 10.

    When I tried to start an app it suddenly started to run in the background instead of foreground as it should, as seen in the Taskmanager.

    It is an "external" app and is thus not listed in the Settings-privacy- background apps list

    I want to force it back to run as foreground app again.

    Is it possible?
