Glow on taskbar buttons doesn't go away
When you mouse over a button on the taskbar in Windows 7, the button glows in the predominant color of the program's icon, with the glow being most intense where the cursor currently is. Then the cursor leaves the button, the glow goes away.
However, for me, when the cursor leaves a button and does not then enter another button, the glow stays on the previously hovered over button. This is not what is supposed to happen. Does anyone know what causes this or how to fix it? |

Does the glow disappear when you click the desktop?

Have you got mouse set to one click to open files instead of double click?
If so hover over = one click = select icon, until you hover or click over something else |

I hadn't realized that NVidia was now releasing drivers for mobile video cards. Last time I checked I still fell into the "See your manufacturer" category. Anyway, updated the drivers and the glow now works correctly. Thanks everyone.

Well, now that Frostmourne's sig doesn't show or has been changed, the fix can no longer be seen.
Can anyone post whatever link he had in my sig? I've had this problem for months and have always updated my gpu drivers, so I hope there were some additional instructions in that link. Thanks, SubGum |

Taskbar button glow doesn't go away When I mouse over the taskbar buttons, the glow doesn't go away after I move the mouse away. This doesn't happen all the time, but seems to always pop up eventually on every boot, and persists until I restart. It's done this across several gpu driver updates, so it must be something with Win7.... |
