  1. Windows minimizing


    Since the last major windows 10 update, as soon as i open a message, web page, etc. it minimizes if there is already something open. trying to get to a new window to stay up is frustrating to say the least. what gives?

    Windows minimizing

    Minimized windows don't restore properly

    Hi Caledon thanks for the reply

    I'll go through it all step by step


    1. I open TC (Total Commander or I could say LibreOffice)
    2. I minimize TC
    3. I click on TC on the task bar to restore it
    4. Nothing appears to happen
    5. I open the old program "Desk Lite" and center all windows
    6. I find TC as pictured in my first post

    Desk Lite does not install it's totally self contained. I had not even had it on my laptop at all until after the problem started.

    Also, I had 1607 on it which is when the problem started. I had a second, larger SSD which I had been thinking of putting in the laptop so I thought I'd put it in and reinstall Windows 10 as a fresh install from an ISO I d/led from Dell. This put 1511 on the system and the problem persists.

    Edit: I apologize if I seem snippy. It's frustrating.

    Why does command prompt randomly open and close and how to stop it from minimizing my window?: Sometime something will quickly run command prompt or windows PowerShell for a split second before closing.
