Not able to minimize, maximize, close the browser window

On a Vista PC, I am able to close all windows by clicking the Red Cross at the top of the window except Google Chrome browser.  Can I close chrome by clicking on its button in the taskbar or by selecting exit from the menu, but the three buttons at the top right are visible but not clickable.  I uninstalled and reinstalled Chrome.

Ideas welcomed.

  • Cannot minimize/maximize/close/move/resize Windows.

    The right upper buttons to minimize, maximize, and close a window do not work. Respond to mouse pointer, they don't take any action when you click it. Also, I can't move or resize windows by dragging them, etc. I can always shut down windows with the task bar or the Task Manager and everything within a window function normally. In addition, some pop up dialogue boxes (that is to say, "do you want to save this document before closing?") have no text in buttons, while maintaining their functionality. Does anyone have an idea what could be causing these issues?

    After further investigation, it seems that not all programs are affected by the present. Google chrome, iTunes, Adobe Photoshop, and all work normally, but not Windows Explorer Microsoft office, the Task Manager, Control Panel, etc., that all work.
    Any help is appreciated.

    I suggest that you run the System File Checker to see if you have corrupted system files. It may take some time, so you can do when your will not to use your computer.

    Click Start
    Type: CMD, according to the results, right-click CMD
    Click on "Run as Administrator"
    At the command prompt, type: sfc/scannow

    This will check for any violation of the integrity and repair any damaged operating system files.

    Restart your system

    Now run the command chkdsk:
    1 disable any security software before you attempt to upgrade or do a clean install.
    2. make sure that your computer is updated (devices and applications)
    3. disconnect all external devices before installing.
    4. check your hard disk for errors:
    Click Start

    Someone at - it the same problem?

    Thanks in advance.

    Rosalie

    Bit off-topic, but please install the patch to upgrade to 8.0.1, always use you first version (several bugs).

    For JS: This might be the reason, you are unable to insert the code (create functions) in the JS file and call the function in the JS command in the tip action?

  • Given that I've upgraded to 20.0, many keyboard shourtcuts do not work in the browser window: Ctrl + C, CTRL-V, etc.

    Many shortcut keys do not work in apps/sites in the browser window:

    CTRL-C, RIGHT/LEFT/TOP/DOWN-arrow, BACKSPACE (back), CTRL-D, CTRL-T, TAB to move from one field, etc.

    Using the menu commands such as COPY and PASTE work fine, while CTRL + C and Ctrl + V do not work.

    Real pain... (since the upgrade to V20 a few days ago)

    Following another suggestion here, I went in: config and disabled the "allowclipboardhelper.tabs.disabled" parameter set to "false". No change.

    I'm on Mac OSX 10.7.5 (Lion).

    Hello

    Thank you very much. And thanks for the quick response!

    I did as suggested and restarted several times enable or disable addons to isolate the one that generated the problem.

    The guilty were:

    Website and SEO analysis 1.1
    SEOpen 1.2

    Everything seems fine now.

    Take care.

  • How to close a browser window

    Hello

    I'm trying to figure out what I'm missing! I added a close button for a Flash Player 8 file that runs in a browser window. When the user clicks the close button I want to close the browser window. The code on my button I tried is:

    getURL ("javascript:window.close ()");
    and
    getURL ("javascript:window.open (", '_parent',"); window.close ();");
    and
    getURL ("javascript:window.opener = self;") Window.Close () ");"

    Any of these will close a Safari or Firefox window, but it works in Internet Explorer. Am I missing something?

    Thank you


    Julia

    Try this action in the buttom:

    The pop up with flash will open the site in the window of the door, and then close it self.

    This works fine in IE and Firefox.

  • Everyone is having a problem with only being able to do a Google search and then nothing after that. I have to close the browser and reopen it to each search

    Since the upgrade to 12.0, I am only able to do a Google search. After the initial search, nothing happens when you try to make another. I have to close the browser and reopen it to each search. Any ideas.

    Try to start Firefox in safe mode. This mode disables all extensions, customizations, hardware acceleration, etc., temporarily for the diagnosis and troubleshooting. If Firefox works fine in Safe Mode, then it is probably a problem with the add-on. Restart Firefox in normal mode, and then type "subject: addons" (without the quotes) in the address bar. Disable your extensions, restart Firefox between each one, until you find the troublemaker.

    A few other basic problems you can try things is the following:
    Run all Windows updates, install all required service packs, etc.

    Updating your graphics driver (Firefox uses the graphics card for rendering and an outdated graphics card driver can cause problems. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-do-i-upgrade-my-graphics-drivers.

    Update all of your plugins (Flash, Java, etc.): http://www.mozilla.org/plugincheck/.

    Download and install MalwareBytes Anti-Malware, run a full scan. http://www.malwarebytes.org/. This check allows that there is no virus on your computer, causing problems. You can uninstall this program after having cleaned the infections.

  • I need to remove "minimize, maximize, close" buttons on the mode full screen

    I can remove all the buttons (like refresh, back, forward, address bar, etc.), but the small right 3 "minimize, maximize, close" buttons I can't delete, how can I do it with userChrome.css or another option.
    Because I can close firefox out of the full screen and clicking on the menu of archive with the ' Alt ' key.
    I don't want this small 3 buttons, I can hide and show permanent.

    I hope to explain correctly
    Thank you very much

    Add code to userChrome.css below default @namespace.

    Not sure if it's a problem of Windows 7 or AFX but Ive noticed that the top of my AFX interface disappeared.

    Sound the band that runs across the top of the screen with minimize/maximize/close buttons on the right and the Project Details AFX and icon on the left.

    It is not a space where he was... the rest but just straight interface to the edge.

    Any ideas what I could have done (or says) to lose? Sees nothing obvious in any prefs or settings, but it would be useful because it is there!

  • Bookmarks toolbar disappears whenever I close the browser. Have you tried all the recommendations.

    At the time where Firefox has become very slow, I've been running Chrome for several versions. I'm now trying to switch to Firefox. I have 27.0.1. My bookmarks toolbar disappears whenever I close the browser. I tried all the recommendations I can find including zero and change of name, etc, but nothing has failed to cure the problem. Restore default used to work for the current session, but now it does not work. I'm about to give up and stick with Chrome as the bookmarks toolbar problem is driving me crazy. I'm about to try to uninstall and reinstall Firefox. And this will be my last resort, unless you get a solution to this problem. I've been a Firefox user since its inception up to 16 or 17 years old and like Firefox, but this seems to be common according to my research. BOOKMARKS BAR IS A MUST HAVE!

    If you like Advanced SystemCare software that could restore some files from older versions to protect these files based on changes, and then check the settings or uninstall this software.
