philipkd Posted October 29, 2011 Report Share Posted October 29, 2011 Every now and then when I click and drag a window title in Windows 7, it minimizes all other windows. I can't seem to duplicate this consistently, nor can I figure out what to Google for to understand it. How do I stop this from happening? What specific steps are actually triggering it? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irene Posted October 30, 2011 Report Share Posted October 30, 2011 Hello philipkd, welcome to Windows Forum. :) Perhaps you accidentally 'shake' the title bar - Aero Shake:http://www.home-pc-help.com/windows7desktop.html Aero Shake One of the new Windows 7 desktop features is called "Aero Shake" and it works like this: Let's say you have several windows open at once and you decide that you want to concentrate on one in particular. With Aero Shake, you can quickly minimize all of the other open windows on your desktop by clicking and holding down your left mouse button on the title bar of the window you want to keep open. Then shake the window back and forth quickly, and the other open windows will be minimized. If you want to restore the minimized windows, shake the open window again.
