Nothing, and I mean NOTHING, frustrates me more with the Windows experience than the “take focus” aspect of a Windows Update “restart now” dialogue box. I realize there are more than a few frustrating things about Windows, but this is the one that has consistently been the biggest pain in my ass for the past decade plus.
The scenario: you’re typing away at an e-mail or other document, you see a momentary flash on your screen (what the eff was that?!), and suddenly your entire system is shutting down because you hit “enter” while typing just as Windows popped up a “restart your computer now?” dialogue without your knowledge.
WHAT THE FUCK MICROSOFT?! This is a HUGE problem with the way the Windows system dialogue works and has always worked (or NOT worked, as it were). Do people not complain about this ALL THE FUCKING TIME?!
This would be such a simple fix… SO FIX IT.
There are a few “solutions” posted on the web that purport to fix this problem, but in my experience none of them work… at all. If you know of something that actually does work, please post it in the comments!
