| Full screen applications randomly minimize, other apps lose focus I am having a terrible time with this ONE problem. other than this, I kinda like this new OS. Here is the problem: If I am running a full screen application (a game for instance), the window will sometimes minimize itself to the system tray. I have no other foreground applications running when this happens, so it just minimizes and all I am looking at is my desktop. I tried closing out any bacground applications (anti virus included) that I did not think were vital for the system to run properly without success. I have noticed, however, that this does not happen if I run Internet Explorer full screen. Also, in other programs that might not be full screen, the program I am working in will simply lose focus. This happens in nearly all programs as far as I can tell (I lost focus of this window twice so far while I tried to write this). It is a SERIOUS problem when I am working in photoshop that is causing me a lot of grief. It is possible that someone has come across this and knows of a solution to this, and that would be great. But if not, I would settle for steps on how to force focus on a program, and how to force a particular application to remain full-screen. Thanks in advance for any help |
