DONE SOLVED DEAD THREAD

Go to solution Solved by Nostalgia_Realm,

I think I get it now after reading that post like 10 times. You probably have "Activate a window by hovering over it with the mouse" turned on in Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Ease of Access Centre\Make the mouse easier to use

The video doesn't show anything out of the ordinary...?

(I didn't have the audio on, so I missed anything you said)

 

Do you want to lock a window in front of another or something?

I don't think this ordinary because every other computer I have used doesn't do this. Let's say I have a folder maximized, and then I open task manager, the task manager is smaller than the maximized folder and as soon as I move my cursor off the taskbar the task manager gets hidden behind the maximized folder. This is really frustrating because it makes opening multiple windows over each other extremely difficult and a tedious process. In order to see the task manager again I have to do what you saw in the video (dragging my mouse from the taskbar holding left mouse button until I reach the task manager).
