  1. Windows 11 explorer getting the focus after every click


    I have just installed windows 11 on my machine and I was using it soundly for progamming, however, after trying to play some games on it, I noticed that most of the times I left click on a fullscreen or max sized game window, the focus would switch rapidly to some other task and then back to whatever game I was playing.Upon installing a focus logger, I noticed that every time I click, o any window, not just games, the focus would switch to explorer and then back to whatever program I clicked on. I can't confidently say this was happening from the day I installed Windows 11, as I only noticed I

    Windows 10 Tweaks

    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
