Leaderofblind Posted December 24, 2011 Share Posted December 24, 2011 This only started happening last night, but every so often while I'm playing SWTOR it will minimize itself, and take a little while to pull back up. Sometimes this happens every few minutes, but there have been times it happens within 30 seconds of itself. Putting the game on Windowed(Fullscreen) keeps it from minimizing, but it still pulls the desktop bar to the forefront of the screen and cuts the audio from the game until I click back to it. Has anyone else run into the issue/have a possible solution? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Festisio Posted December 24, 2011 Share Posted December 24, 2011 (edited) You are pressing the windows key on your keyboard by mistake. It is the one between ctrl and alt. Stop doing it and your problem will go away. Edited December 24, 2011 by Festisio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Armaso Posted December 24, 2011 Share Posted December 24, 2011 Mine has done that a couple times as well. I thought I had done it by accident until last night when the game minimized while I was not touching the mouse or keyboard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xavox Posted December 24, 2011 Share Posted December 24, 2011 you probably have a program running in the background that does some kind of satus-update or something. getting calls in skype minimize swtor as an example. Try shutting down programs you dont need from the autostart and then restart your computer. To change the autostart press "the windows button + r" a windows named "run" should appear. write "msconfig" without the ", and press enter. go to autostart and turn of stuff that doenst have to start with the computer. (things you should leave on is the anitvirus and any wireless software. most other stuff you can take away from the autostart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reddiver Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 I'm having the same thing happen, but it has pretty much taken everything over. No matter what program I'm running, even if SWTOR isn't running, every 30 seconds or so it will bring the desktop to the forefront until I click back into something.
