    Windows 7 Why Windows Explorer and other programs is not minimizing?

    Windows Explorer is not minimizing when I open a file, and that same file opens correctly when I open it within the program. But the issue extends with other files. For example when an external drive connects to my laptop the dialog box message (AutoPlay) goes to my taskbar DIRECTLY.

  12. Windows 7 How to stop Pop-under advisory dialogs?

    Question, how do I stop advisory messages from poping up under other windows so they can't be seen. I thought possibly some of the advisory dialog boxes were poping up under other windows because of the way the software was written. But since I now see Windows 7 boxes that pop-under, I am...

    Windows 7 Annoying Window Focus

    Am I alone in hating the way Windows 7 handles windows focus? I guess in a way it's good that a dialogue doesn't pop up in the middle of typing or clicking, resulting in an unintended answer to the dialogue, but too often I find myself missing new windows. Say for example a website has a...
