in windows 7 How to set a window of "stay on top"?
I want to have the apps to say 1-2 in the foreground who don't go away unless I close them and the rest in the background - applications like IE or Word or GIMP is my scenario.
Is there an option "prominent"?
Y at - it an option of "locking in the front?
Thank you
Hello
Thanks for your post in Microsoft Community
In IE and MS office cannot be considered always on TOP. There is no such command or option has been added, Windows does not provide a native function for this task
But some of the player like WMP, VLC, this option will be available that you can bring to the front always
However the third-party software can do that::Example-
OnTopReplica
OnTopReplica uses the Office DWM Composition in Windows Vista and Windows 7 to clone a window and run it in a small thumbnail that always stays on top. It is perfect for keeping only the video image of a VCR on top. OnTopReplica requires .NET Framework 2.0 and a theme of Windows Aero.

Why isn't the taskbar Windows 10 stay on top when browsing with Firefox?
For one reason or another, the Windows 10 taskbar is not displayed on the top of the Firefox browser windows/pages. He remains at the top in Google Chrome and Internet Explorer. Why won't it stay on top in Firefox? I need to be able to see the time and date while browsing. Is there a solution to this? Please inform me of how to remedy the situation as soon as POSSIBLE, or I have to use Google Chrome (but I won't!).
If Firefox is in display full screen, that allows to block the taskbar. You can switch from full screen to normal display using either:
- F11
- Drag the pointer of the mouse to the top of the screen, right-click on an empty area of the bar tab, then exit fullscreen
If this is not it, sometimes the file that stores the dimensions of the window becomes corrupt with nonsense values. Since the file is difficult to edit, you can rename and have Firefox back to windows default sizes.
Open the settings folder (AKA Firefox profile) current Firefox help
- button "3-bar" menu > "?" button > troubleshooting information
- (menu bar) Help > troubleshooting information
- type or paste everything: in the address bar and press Enter
In the first table of the page, click on the view file"" button. This should launch a new window that lists the various files and folders in Windows Explorer.
Leave this window open, switch back to Firefox and output, either:
- "3-bar" menu button > button "power".
- (menu bar) File > Exit
Pause while Firefox finishing its cleanup, then rename xulstore.json to something like xulstore.old. If you see a file named localstore.rdf, rename this to localstore.old.
Launch Firefox back up again. Windows normally appear again?
This process may disable some of the bars that you want to display. To enable their return, you can use one of the following methods to view the list of the toolbar, and then select the desired bars it:
- Right click on a place empty on the tab bar (or the button '+')
- Press the Alt key to activate the classic menu bar > view > toolbars
- in customize mode > show/hide toolbars (see: Customize Firefox commands, buttons, and toolbars)
To activate the menu bar, toolbar bookmarks or other bars, click it in the list.

How can I make calculator Windows always stay 'on top' of an application in use?
I work in Open Office Calc and I want the Windows calculator to "always stay at the top" of the application. This is so I don't get a response in the calculator, write it down on paper, and then enter the answer to the request. I have to do this because the calculator with the answer disappears behind the application as soon as I touch a key on the application.
Maybe someday there will be a way to 'anchor' the calculator to the application so that the calculator does not disappear.
Thank you.
There are 3 third-party solutions, you can search on the internet. You can choose one that will work best in your environment.
Thank you

Qosmio G40 - 10F: how to set up double Tv Tuner in Windows Media Center
Hello
I recently bought a 10th G40 and I was wondering how to set up dual Tv Tuner in Windows media Center to watch and record the Tv at the same time.
I tried to download the new driver from the Toshiba download page, but it seems to make no difference that Media Center does not give me the ability to configure 2 tuners.Any help would be grateful
Michael Bowen
Hello
Found this useful Microsoft page:
http://www.Microsoft.com/Windows/products/windowsvista/footnotes.mspxTake a look at the chapter * M *-> on MCE
You can find this info:
+ Reading and TV recording features require a USB TV tuner or external. Supports up to two TV tuners +.So in my opinion, you cannot record TV and watch another channel at the same time using only the internal TV tuner.
