    Prevent Active Window Changing


    Hi all, I have looked but I am unable to find a solution to my problem.
    I am wanting to disable Windows from changing the active window with new windows. If I am working on something, I would like *all* new window instanced to open in the background. Too many times have I missed something important with a new window popping up! (Running version 1909 build 18363.836)
    Is there any way to do this? Thank you! - Juan
