Windows 8.1 apps exit and minimize buttons

The close and minimize buttons disappear after 3 seconds in windows 8.1 apps and don't come back i used alt+tab to exit the app 
does anyone know how to fix this

Hi n_man2000,
You need to move your mouse to the top of the screen and then click the
Close button in the title bar.
For more information about how to close an APP in Windows 8.1, please check:
How do I close an app?
If I misunderstand something, please let me know.

  • When I have a 2nd Firefox window open, my bookmark toolbar is empty, as well as there is an additonal bar above where the exit and minimize buttons are. There is also a black bar where the minimize and exit button are.

    [http://i.imgur.com/FirpS.jpg Picture of the problem]

    -> Tap ALT key or press F10 to show the Menu Bar
    -> go to Help Menu -> select "Restart with Add-ons Disabled"
    Firefox will close then it will open up with just basic Firefox. Now do this:
    -> go to View Menu -> Toolbars -> select '''Menu Bar''' and '''Navigation ToolBar''' -> unselect All Unwanted toolbars
    -> go to View Menu -> Sidebar -> select '''Bookmarks'''
    -> go to Tools Menu -> Options -> Content -> place Checkmarks on:
    1) Block Pop-up windows 2) Load images automatically 3) Enable JavaScript
    -> go to Tools Menu -> Options -> Privacy -> History section -> '''Firefox will: select "Use custom settings for history"''' -> REMOVE Checkmark from "'''Permanent Private Browsing mode'''" -> place CHECKMARKS on:
    1) Remember my Browsing History 2) Remember Download History 3) Remember Search History 4) Accept Cookies from sites -> select "Exceptions..." button -> Click "Remove All Sites" at the bottom of "Exception - Cookies" window
    4a) Accept Third-party Cookies -> under "Keep Until" select "They Expire"
    -> REMOVE CHECKMARK from CLEAR HISTORY WHEN FIREFOX CLOSES
    -> go to Tools Menu -> Options -> Security -> place Checkmarks on:
    1) Warn me when sites try to install add-ons 2) Block reported attack sites 3) Block reported web forgeries 4) Remember Passwords for sites
    -> Click OK on Options window
    -> click the Favicon (small drop down menu icon) on Firefox SearchBar (its position is on the Right side of the Address Bar) -> click "Manage Search Engines" -> select all Unwanted Search Engines and click Remove -> click OK
    -> go to Tools Menu -> Add-ons -> Extensions section -> REMOVE All Unwanted/Suspicious Extensions (Add-ons) -> Restart Firefox
    You can enable your Known & Trustworthy Add-ons later. Check and tell if its working.

  • How to disable the maximize and minimize button of JDialog

    How to disable the maximize and minimize button of JDialog. I have an application which has JDialog box, but in that i should not have maximize and minimize button.If any one come across this problem and got a solution please helpout me.

    Btw, isn't it a little strange to ask thisquestion...
    Actually, I thought it was meant to be sardonic...
    Dialogs don't have those buttons, so the question
    n should be to the OP how did he/she get them in the
    first place? Cuz they aren't using JDialog to do it,
    unless it's something to do with a specific look &
    feel.I somehow missed that, good point :-)

  • Differences between 'Cancel' , 'Exit' and 'Back' buttons in a dialog prog.

    Hi all,
    I have a straightforward questions about handlign the Cancel, Exit and Back buttons in a dialog program. What is the way of handling these function codes? I guess with 'Exit'  we leave the transaction using command 'Leave Program',  with 'Back' we can use 'Leave to screen 0' . Right? What about Cancel command?
    Regards,
    Sükrü

    hi
    good
    CANCEL->Cancel the Current Session back to exactly last session
    EXIT->Exit From the current session and back to main session
    BACK->Back to the exactly the last session

  • Disappearing menu bar and minimize button quits working

    I'm working in Entourage or Firefox (with about 3 other small applications open and Classic is running) and the screen suddenly blacks out, as if a screen saver came on for about a quarter second, then the screen comes back. The Menu bar is gone. I can get the menu bar back by clicking on the background and then clicking back on the application, but the minimize button no longer works on the open applications' windows. If I open a new application, the minimize button works on that window. Sometimes I have trouble getting the menu bar back, depending on the application that was open when it "blinked". When this is happening, it occurs at about 20 to 30 minute intervals. Any ideas of what's happening? Has anyone experienced something similar?

  • Windows 8.1 Apps open and close immediately

    We have joined a laptop running Windows 8 to the domain however none of the apps work. They open and then close immediately.
    The error in the event log is:The app microsoft.windowscommunicationsapps_8wekyb3d8bbwe!Microsoft.WindowsLive.Calendar's package family (microsoft.windowscommunicationsapps_8wekyb3d8bbwe) has more than one package installed. This is not supported, so the app
    was not activated for the Windows.Launch contract.
    The problem doesn't happen with a local user or before the laptop was on the domain.
    We have tried following with no luck:
    *Permission changes for ALL APLICATION PACKAGES
    * Laptop and user in an OU with no group policies applying
    *Same ISO re-downloaded
    *Registry changes advised by Microsoft
    * Local admin rights to domain user
    Uninstalling and re-installing the apps manually fixed this issue but this isn't the correct way of fixing this as Windows 8 will be rolled out company wide.
    Any help is appreciated!
    Thanks

    Hi,
    How are the APPs installed on the PC before joining into domain? With Microsoft account?
    Besides, have you checked this blog?
    What to do if your Windows 8 Modern App fails to start
    Please follow the steps mentioned to see if any group policy settings(like AppLocker, logon scripts or proxy settings) or the image itself caused this.

  • Windows 8.1 apps freeze and minimise to tray

    Hi!
    I have a problem with my win 8.1 machine. All the windows 8.1 apps like the store, weather freeze on their splash screen when I start them and then they minimise to tray. If I try to maximise them again they minimise back again after a few seconds.
    These apps never get past the splash screen and there are no swirling loading dots on them (There is a similar problem other people had but they had swirling loading dots and I don't. Also I tried all the solutions I could find for that problem and none
    worked). Also my apps don't have an X in the tile corner (unlike an other similar problem) and the solutions to that one also don't work for me. I tried WSreset.exe too but it just threw back a "Application didn't run" error window. I downloaded
    the windows store troubleshooter and it concluded that there was a problem with store cache that it couldn't fix.
    I have ownership of app security set to SYSTEM.
    I ran out of ideas and hope there someone here who can give me some pointers.

    Thanks for replying!
    The powershell code doesn't seem to do anything. I  copypasted it and ran it but absolutely nothing happened.
    the dism.exe code in Admin CMD started running and froze at a line that said "Image Version: 6.3.9600.17031"
    it stayed like that until I tried to restart the machine at which point it threw back an error code and made a log I posted at the end of this comment. ("Nincs elég hely a lemezen." is hungarian for "not enough space on disk." but I have
    about 400GB free on C: so I don't know what this is supposed to mean.
    Also "A fájlnév, a könyvtárnév vagy a kötetcímke szintaxisa nem megfelelő." means "File name or library name or volume label sintax is incorrect")
    The log continues with a very long line of Chinese characters, I pasted all the english parts.

  • My problem is close and minimize buttons on the tabs.

    The minimize and close buttons are working fine on the main screen. When I open tabs I cannot minimize them. I keep going up to minimize and I end up closing out the tab that I wanted.

    Did you have any luck figuring this out? It just started happening on my wife's iPhone 5. Restoring to factory settings did nothing. One repair shop in my town thought it was the main chip going out.

  • Federated Book showing strange maximize and minimize buttons

    Hi all,
    I've just federated a book (.book file) in WLP 10.3.2 and when it shows up in the consumer the buttons to maximize and minimize appear.
    The behave of the book is as if it were a portlet. As I can remember, it didn't happen in the 10.3.0 version.
    When I put a local book in the desktop instead, this thing doesn't occur.
    Could anyone explain what is happening?
    Thanks in advance,

  • How to remove the standard Exit and Help buttons from the iviews

    Hi All,
    We migrated the ESS application from standalone ITS based on 4.6c to ECC 6 based Integrated one.  After converting that into ICF service and when we created the iview for it in the portal(EP 7)  It is showing two hyperlink items EXIT and HELP by default at the top of every iview.  So, Can anybody tell me how to remove them from visibility.
    And also, the iviews are not showing the table grids etc in the integrated environment.  Is there any change that need to be done, for getting the table grids and all to look as it is in the previous envoronment.

    Hello Ravi,
    You should be aware that many of the ESS transaction are not supported on the Integrated ITS, see note 870126 for more details.
    To remove the "Exit" and "Help" you can use the ~webgui_simple_toolbar parameter, please see note 1010519. 
    Some tables have an option to show the gridlines or not.  Please see if there is a table options icon in the upper right of the table to change the configuration.  I'm not sure if what kind of table you're referring to so it may or may not be available.
