    I could be in the middle of any game and for some reason it will minimize itself. I could be doing actions like pushing keys or left/right clicking and it will still happen, this is not happening while I am idle. After Alt+Tabbing back it won't do it again... though it will happen twice but no more than that. I haven't really timed it yet but a rough guess would be from about the time I open the game to between 30 mins. No software that I use comes to mind that would cause this kind of of behavior. I've done a complete wipe and reinstall of Windows 11 Pro 22631.3296 23H2 and I still have the same problem. I've done Virus scans, etc, and nothing was found. I've delt with it for awhile now and you think you'd get use to it but I have not and it's becoming somewhat of a annoyance. :rolleyes:

    Anyways, if anyone has any solutions I'd appreciate the help.

    Hi Wolfgem,

    Just a wild guess here did you turn off windows sticky keys.

    It was a good guess cause I wasn't too sure if I did but I took a look while reading your post and I can say everything related to sticky keys are off.

    Edit: Correction the only thing that was "on" relating to Sticky was "Turn off Sticky keys when two Keys are pressed at the same time" I have now turned that off.

    Edit: I think they may have solved my issue. Thanks Sabbath!
