XYplorer window sometimes losing focus

Post by Patrick Schönbach »

Hello,

when accessing a network maschine or share (often via folder favorites, if that is relevant), the XYplorer main window often (but not always) loses focus and needs to be activated again in order to continue working.

Any idea what is stealing the focus?

No, after that, none of the windows has the focus.

OK, then it's some invisible window or the desktop. Focus does not go away just like that. Anyway, it's weird.

Win/other software notification system is often a focus-stealer, here.

I have seen this as well. It doesn't happen with Explorer.

if it gives any hints, the active window loses focus when devices are plugged in/out. But the focus returns back in a flash. Windows 10.

I don't have any pluggable devices, just browsing network shares.

Yes, I know. My cmt was intended for Don. I suppose these cases of focus stealing could be related.
