I have Windows XP SP1. When a user opens a new window, sometimes it hides
behind other open windows. The item appears in the taskbar but doesn't open
directly in a window on the desktop. When you click on the item in the
taskbar it doesn't maximize until you minimize the other open windows...I
checked the user's taskbar settings and unchecked the setting to "keep the
task bar on top of other windows" but that didn't solve the problem. This
problemmost likely occurs when minimizing the RDP connection. I checked the
RDP connection window settings, but could not find any relevant options to
change. I installed the newest RDP client on the computer, and the problem
still occurred. This is very strange behavior.
The old RDP client version came packaged with Windows XP SP1 and its version
is 5.1.2600.1106.
New Version installed: 5.2.3790.0
I have other users on Win XPSP1 with the same problem. Please advise, thank
you.

Try to right click and Maximize. I have had lots of issues with Office XP
programs that behaved this way.

Hope this helps

Thanks. Do you know if this is a bug or registry key fix in Windows or any
Office products?
