    Random window opens when minimizing


    I've detected a funny behavior in windows 10 both in my laptop and in my desktop computer. Occasionally (very sporadically) when I minimize a program (Word, Firefox, Thunderbird...) next it opens the window of an app that was not open formerly (usually the calendar, the calculator or the photos app). I don't know why this happen, I'm not able to reproduce the error whenever I want, it just happens sometimes, and in both my computers. I haven't found any information on the Interned related to it, or to a similar bug. Any idea?

    :)

  2. Restore minimized: both email AND open message

    Hello John,

    Thank you for posting your query on Microsoft forums and apology for the delayed response.

    I understand that you were able to perform an easier way of minimizing and opening email program and open email in earlier version of Windows, now in Windows 10 you are not able to perform the same task.

    Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

    Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

    • Open a new Explorer window.
    • Click View in the ribbon.
    • Click Options.
    • Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
    • Click OK
