Cursor hover over application issue
Hello friends, I recently switched to Windows 10 and it's been great so far but I've been having problems with one specific thing.
I use VLC to listen to podcasts and I leave the VLC window behind all the rest of my windows since I don't need to touch it for any reason until the podcast ends. Sometimes though I need to change its volume if its get too loud or quiet, so what I used to do in Windows 8 was simply select VLC with alt-tab and raise its volume with the mouse wheel, without needing to ever move the cursor.
In Windows 10 however, I can't do this anymore: if I select VLC and try to change its volume with the mouse wheel, nothing happens; for anything to happen, I have to manually move the cursor over the VLC window, and only then I can change its volume. This wouldn't be a problem but since the VLC window is buried beneath all the rest of my windows, I have to minimize everything every time I want to change its volume, making this very very annoying.
Does anyone know how I could possibly change this to back the way it was? It would be really REALLY appreciated!!
Thanks in advance!
