window controls

About this tag
The window controls tag on WindowsForum.com covers issues related to the standard window management buttons (close, minimize, maximize, resize) in Windows. Users report problems such as window controls becoming unresponsive, preventing them from closing or resizing windows normally. In some cases, the only workaround is to close windows via the taskbar. Other threads describe broader mouse interaction failures where the cursor cannot click on non-desktop windows, though keyboard controls still work. These issues are discussed in the context of Windows 7, with mentions of hardware like ROCCAT mice and Microsoft keyboards, as well as graphics drivers and Aero. The tag does not cover Linux window controls despite one thread mentioning Ubuntu.
