  1. Windows 10 Randomly Loses Focus on Current Application Being Used


    I have read through threads similar to my issue but non of them seem to be the same as each other and the solutions have ranged from rebuilding the index to deleting policies.Here's what mine does from least annoying to most annoying.Scenario 1 I could be playing a video game full screen. Randomly, the game will exit full screen, minimize, and pause it's self. This is normal when I try to access another window on one of my other monitors.Scenario 2 I am actively typing in MS Word and my cursor disappears. I have to click on the MS Word window to regain focus and pickup where I left off.Scena

    Windows lose focus

    When my Cingular 8125 is connected to my Vista Ultimate 64-bit machine, opened windows randomly lose focus. Whatever application is active will suddenly go inactive, as if I [alt][tab]'d off it. The issue immediately clears up as soon as I disconnect the
    pocket pc. The issue is annoying as I will be typing in some text control, then the app loses focus, then it regains focus and all text in the field automatically highlights and is overwritten with the next keystroke. Any ideas?



    BTW, the version of Window Mobile Device Center is current.

    Windows 10 applications lose focus

    Applications are dropping focus randomly in Windows 10 Pro v1703 B15063.850

    See

    Windows 10 losing focus

    ...which was apparently closed without a solution. I'll scream bloody murder if you close this without resolving it, because it is a security issue.

    Funny thing, when I ran DISM (you read the link right?), that window lost focus as well.

    Focus returns to the last application that had it.

    Here's the output of DISM:

    [===========================95.1%======================= ]

    Error: 0x800f081f

    The source files could not be found.

    Use the "Source" option to specify the location of the files that are required to restore the feature. For more information on specifying a source location, see Configure a Windows Repair Source.

    The DISM log file can be found at C:\WINDOWS\Logs\DISM\dism.log

    I'm guessing it's talking about the Windows Store, which seems to have been disabled by my corporation.

    The problem is frequent, it's lost focus twice while typing this.

    I'll watch the thread for replies.
