Solved Full screen Games minimizing without any reason.

[iMalkauori]

My Full-screen games are minimizing without any reason also Google Chrome (or any other program) is being deselected for no reason. Please help me and tell me what is the problem?

If you have a customisable mouse it could be that. Check the settings for it.

No dude, I think there is some software opening and closing automatically. But I used Norton Internet Security 2011 for a Full System scan and there was no viruses. Used Malware bytes Anti-Malware and it found only 3 viruses, deleted them and it is still deselecting windows and minimizing full-screen games. I think there is some kind of software which automatically opens and then closes... Please Help. It happened to over one million people on the Internet. Just search it on Google, I tried every thing to fix it but still deselecting...

Update: I downloaded BitDefender Total Security 2012 Evaluation and scanned Full-System but no infections. Please help...

Update 2: I found what is wrong, I just opened Task Manager and found that the file named: "wermgr.exe" (Windows Problem Reporting) It just opens and closes over and over again. So, I pressed the start button and searched for "Choose how to report problems" and then I clicked it and then I clicked "Never check for solutions", Which fixed everything and now I can do what ever I like without This shit bugging me". Thanks for anyone who helped me here. SevenForums for LiFE.

Hello Guys. I have finaly got my problem fixed and is going for a month now without minimizing.

After reading tons of stupid and/or dumb answers from people that either says: "You touch the Windows buttom" or actualy now the answer but wont tell because they have a looser life i found out the problem.

The reason is because of an update program that acutaly is made with the best intetion to keep your internet updated but easily get corrupted by virus etc. It is called liveupd.exe . It is also that thing you can see in the taskmanager for like a second then it disapires again.

What you do is that you find out where you internet program is installed. Find the folder called "Updatedogg" , go in their and remove the 3 files called. Liveupd.exe, Liveupd.dat and Runliveupd.exe . The problem is gone. The 3 files may be located another place but it is thoes 3 files that makes the mess.

PS Sry for spelling errors

if you are running windows 7 they have an annoying feature call "peek at desktop" you can find it to the right of your clock
its the little empty box just click on it and click show desktop and it will stop

I'm having the same problem and it's making me nuts too!! Have tried all the suggestions here (and then some!), nothing has worked.

 

[KalahMaZoo]

Is there no one else?! is there no one else that can help?! :banghead:

I'm having this same problem and none of the solutions have worked it started about 3 days ago.

when i downloaded adaware now i've uninstalled it but the problem persist!

 

[oceansblue]

Wish I had an answer for you! I ended up bringing my computer to factory condition. Drastic, but it worked. My husband, however, started having the same issues a few days ago when playing games. No answers, I'm sorry.

I know this is an old post but having found it I wanted to let folks know that iMalkauori's 26 Dec 2011 post, Option 2 worked for me.

I was having a problem with full screen BF1942 minimizing randomly, very frustrating. While playing some Facebook games, it would constantly go from the game full screen mode to a standard mode. I Did not find wermgr.exe in the process menu but when I clicked the Start button and searched for "Choose how to report problems" and then clicked it and clicked "Never check for solutions" my problems seemed to have been resolved.

i played skyrim and other games with full screen, minimized to desktop with no reason. its been months i think.

and solved few hours ago, here is what im doing:

go to control panel >> programs >> Turn Windows Features on or off >> "deselect" Windows Gadget Platform

then restart. hope it works

Hi guys,

I am having the same problem, i have tried everything that has been suggested on this thread and still no joy.

Even writing this post is a nightmare as it keeps loosing focus on the window!

I have wiped and formatted my drive and reinstalled windows 3 times trying to solve this, i have downloaded and made sure all my drivers are up to date, hoovered it out etc. everything i can think of and have read online, tested the memory disk check. i have just a few things on my comp, steam, left 4 dead 2, ESO (not played it just ready to play), tp link and advanced system care Google and opera. thats it. if i start left 4 dead i get as far as the menu then its minimised, if i play the same just keeps happening. if i type on here every so often the windows error sound happens and it has deselected the window and im no longer typing.

NIGHTMARE!.

Doe anyone have any other suggestions, i just want to enjoy playing some games on my pc this christams!

thanks

for me i had to disable internet explorer and it stopped

Well I play only a hand full of games full screen & it happens even when full screen video watching it jumps to window mode. Doesn't happen often, usually every 45-60 minutes but its constant!

I'm an experienced windows user but I cant figure out whats causing it. I wouldn't put it passed Microsoft doing it deliberately to annoy us into upgrading!
