Windows 7 losing focus, minimizing full screen apps
My computer is running Windows 7 Home 64-bit and I've noticed that occasionally if I'm playing a full screen game or doing anything with a full screen application whatever I'm running will randomly minimize. I downloaded a program that logs which window is currently the main focus and the following is what it recorded when a random minimization occurred. I've done a bit of research but couldn't find any conclusive information on how to solve the issue. Thanks.

1. Is this game on the compatibility list? 2. Is this happening in game only or in all applications? Regards Milos

I've noticed it happen in both Diablo 3 and Dota 2. Diablo 3 is listed as compatible. Dota 2 isn't but is still in a sort of beta so I figured it wouldnt. So far I've only noticed it when playing a full screen game. If I'm watching a video in full screen I haven't seen it happen.

Hi, Firstly, please let us know if other full screen games have the same issue. Meanwhile, based on my knowledge, it can be caused by third-party programs, please check if the issue will also occur in Clean Boot Mode. Hope this helps. Jeremy Wu TechNet Community Support
