Explorer hide feature or just a bug?

[Jose_49]

OS Tested: Windows 7 64-bit SP1

I've been wondering this for a while, but the explorer shell seems to "hide".

Argh. Let me explain:

Do this:

1. Right click the Windows Start Orb

2. Click properties.

3. Right click the close button.

Let the magic begin. Puff. Explorer appears to be gone but it doesn't

I want to know if it's just me or does anyone happen to do the same. I really don't care, on the contrary, it can become useful sometimes :p

Not happening here.

I'm also unable to reproduce the problem. When did it first occur, did you make any changes to the system before it first occurred?

[Lee G. Veteran]

I can't reproduce this either.

Sure you just don't have the taskbar set to auto-hide?

Hello,

I cannot reproduce this either, however, I wonder if it may be due to something such as a shell extension, desktop enhancement or even a mouse driver which performs additional operations when a click is registered.

Hmmm, I don't know.... :s. Not that I really care much... I don't remember tampering with the OS though :p

Ha! Found the "problem" I have HideWindow Plus installed. I didn't know it would hide the program when left clicked the window :p.
