Vista - Program becomes active after resuming from sleep

Program becomes active after resuming from sleep

I have Windows Vista x64 (but experienced the same problem with Vista 32 bit).

I installed Windows Live Mail Desktop and have enabled the option 'Hide
window when Inbox is minimized'.

When resuming from 'Sleep' or 'Hibernation' or even after the screensaver
became active, the program window is again visible.

I have to restore and minimize the window to have it hidden again.

Is this a known issue?

Thanks,

Edwin

Re: Program becomes active after resuming from sleep

I assume you're using Windows Live Mail version 12.0.1606 - no desktop, no
beta.

This was bugged a few weeks ago in respect of the screensaver situation, and
I'm fairly sure someone has pointed out that the same happens when resuming
from standby or hibernation. Even though this was on a beta build, the bug
(303126) is still "active", as far as I can tell - ie. it hasn't been
resolved yet. If you can confirm the version you're using, I'll add your
experience to the bug report. If you have an older version, try upgrading to
gold at http://get.live.com/wlmail/overview .

Re: Program becomes active after resuming from sleep

It is indeed that version. (file version for executable is 12.0.1606.1023).

I noticed this on my 32bit Vista installation (with the Beta), where I put
my machine in hibernation, and now on my 64bit Vista, I use Sleep and it has
the same effect. I also tried Hibernation.

Especially coming back from screensaver is annoying, since this happens
fairly often.

Thanks,

Edwin

Re: Program becomes active after resuming from sleep

OK. I've updated the bug report. Now you'll just have to live with it until
they fix it, unless someone comes along with a solution or a workaround.
