    Is there a way to uninstall Microsoft Connection Manager?


    I have 2 identical Dell E7450 laptops running the same version of Windows 10 -1511.
    One was upgraded in place from Win7 by previous owner. On the other I installed a fresh OS copy myself.

    For reasons I don't understand, my OS installation, but not the upgraded one, includes the MS Connection Manager (CMSTP):

    "Connection Manager is a suite of components that provides administrators with the ability to create and distribute customized remote access connections and to create, distribute, and automatically update customized phone books." I don't need any of this.

    which is completely useless to me, as an individual stand-alone users. CM has lots of files and folders on my system that I would like to get rid of. The system does not allow me to delete them, but given that one laptop runs fine without it, I should be able to uninstall it.

    I have not found any information about this. Does anybody know if this is possible and how?

    :)

    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:

    • Press Windows key + X key and click on Control Panel.
    • Select or click Ease of Access.
    • Click or tap onEase of Access Centre.
    • Click on Make the Mouse Easier to Use was uncheck Activate Window by hovering over it with the mouse.
    • 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.

    • Press “Windows key + X” and click on “Device Manager”.
    • In the list of devices, you should see the touchpad drivers.
    • Right click on the device and then select "Uninstall".
    • 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.
    • 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.
