  2. "Autorotate On" appearing/disappearing black box issue after November 2015 update

    I had the same problem, which is caused by the option to have the computer automatically change between desktop and tablet mode (the auto-switch but "don't ask" option). The switching affects performance; I cannot do anything while the computer switches.
    It takes less than a second, but since it switches to and then immediately from tablet mode, it's unresponsive for a second or two.

    Not sure if you found a solution to this yet, but I followed the instructions above. I didn't have the check box checked, as was the case also for ds1980:

    I followed the instructions but the box was never checked, so those instructions unfortunately do nothing for the issue at hand. And even with everything up to date in Windows Update, the black box still appears.

    However, after checking the box I haven't experienced this problem (it's been 24 hours). So perhaps the problem was that auto-rotate wasn't on. I'd suggest trying the opposite of what Likhitha V above suggested, that is to
    check the checkbox (which is likely unchecked already) rather than uncheck it. The steps again:

    • Press Windows icon key on the keyboard, type Control Panel and select the top most search result.
    • Select Appearance and Personalization and click on Display option.
    • Click on Adjust resolution option from the left side panel of the window.
    • Uncheck the Allow the screen to auto-rotate option and check if the changes are effective.

    I can't guarantee it will work, but it seems to have done the trick for me. It's worth trying!

  3. Taskbar bug: switching to another window -will not appear at the front


    Follow either of these steps to fix the issue with the Active window hiding behind.

    Method 1:
    I suggest you to disable window by hovering over it with the mouse and check if it helps. To do so I suggest you to try the below given steps and check if it helps:

    1. Press Windows key + X key and click on Control Panel.
    2. Select or click Ease of Access.
    3. Click or tap onEase of Access Centre.
    4. Click on Make the Mouse Easier to Use was uncheck Activate Window by hovering over it with the mouse.
    5. Check if issue is resolved.
    Method 2:
    I would suggest you to completely uninstall the touchpad driver and reinstall it. Kindly follow the below given steps.

    1. Press “Windows key + X” and click on “Device Manager”.
    2. In the list of devices, you should see the touchpad drivers.
    3. Right click on the device and then select "Uninstall".
    4. In the uninstall dialog, make sure you select the option to delete the driver package from the system. This causes the driver package installed earlier to be deleted.
    5. In the Action menu of Device manager, select “Scan for Hardware changes” option. This will cause the device driver to be reinstalled. Once the driver is installed, close all windows and restart the computer.
