    Invisible Task View Bug


    After opening task view with Windows + Tab and dragging a window to my second desktop, the task view glitches itself out and becomes stuck in a invisible task view mode after pressing Windows + Tab, or on the icon. So I would still see my desktop and the windows, but clicking anything above the task bar only clicks on the overlaid task view.

    I can click on the the content inside the invisible task view and it would go to the window/desktop, but I'm unable to get out of it pressing Windows + Tab again, or on the task view icon, instead it would keep opening another invisible task view. I'm only able to get out of the invisible task view if I clicked on the content inside, and if there are n invisible task views, I would have to click on the contents n times.

  2. Task View

    It's the Task View, not the Task Bar, that is the problem. I should be getting the popup (right clicking on Task View) showing the options for additional Desktops, not the five options for the Task Bar. A 'chat' with MS Solutions said that I should reinstall
    Windows 10 to MAYBE correct this problem. Any suggestions to correct?? Thanks for your interest...I really appreciate it.
    The Task View is the only feature that I may like on 10!!
