Windows 10 window loses focus

[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Windows 10 window loses focus

Posted: 8/19/2016 10:18:51 AM EDT

I'm having an odd error on one of my PC's that I can't seem to figure out.

I can't rename any files. When I select a file to rename, after about a second, the renaming loses focus like I'd clicked out of it.
I've monitored the event viewer, but nothing is appearing when this occurs. Any suggestions?

Mouse or touchpad? I've had the occasional problem with spurious input on W10

rename them the old fashioned way with a DOS command prompt and use the rename command

This would work for me a little while before it became a nuisance; won't work for my dad though...

I've tried disconnecting the mouse & know to see if one was the error, but no change.

Man, that's a junior varsity level bug to make it into general release.
