Program window not closing

Hi BillM10UK
Please run Windows Update, one of my colleague was having the same issue, but the issue has been successfully fixed once he run the windows update manually.
The original problem has settled (mostly). If the program windows remain on screen then a two finger tap on the finger-pad closes them. I'm still having trouble with other windows. Installation dialog boxes fail to close and get in the way of other things on screen and various File Manager progress boxes remain in place near permanently.
BillM10UK I too am having this issue (specifically with Outlook, Explorer, Teams, Zoom, all java UIs, and some others). I've applied all the updates available and nothing seems to help my Lenovo P52s (laptop/tablet). I am wondering what you are referring to when you say "two-finger tap on the finger pad". How does that translate to a mouse? Any idea?
wjgray Also having the same issue on a lenovo thinkpad. I'm also unable to maximize the majority of windows. The program maximizes, however the dimensions of the application does not change. The border around the program just encompasses the entire screen, but does nothing. I tested this with a brand new C++ application I tested in VS and it still had the same issues.
I wish I could backroll back to windows 10, honestly.
