    File operation dialogue


    Has anyone else noticed that if you have maybe 4 or more windows open, for example you are drilling down several levels of folders on a couple of drives, maybe to organise doc's / images...whatever, that most often the file dialogue (the one that asks for confirmation) appears behind a few of your open windows instead of being promoted to the front, so you have to click it on the taskbar to bring it forward in order to proceed. I think this has only started happening since original upgrade to 1903.
    Any insiders noticed this?
    Its just a minor annoyance but really if a confirmation dialogue is needed shouldn't it be the foremost window?

    Hmm, the workflow that you describe is something that I do frequently - probably every single day, but I have yet to encounter that problem.

    Happens all the time for me, its the dialogue that states you need admin privileges to continue....I'm wondering if it's because I have the background scroll enabled, but I don't have any files left to delete after doing my regular clean up and backups to test that theory, so I suppose it will have to wait.
    BTW this is 1903 with the .295 build...consumer not insider.
