Outlook 2007 issue

Postby WauloK » 08.09.2011 07:35:06

Howdy.

Whenever I'm switching between screens, Outlook 2007 starts spawning various Window control windows. So far, I've seen up to 15 including:
outlookfbthread
wms st notif
mci command
Those are a few of them.
Is there any way to stop them from spawning?

Cheers.

Do you have a desktop rule for Outlook set up?

Yes. Outlook.exe goes to Desktop 2.
It just creates 11-15 windows for controls.
For now I've turned on GROUP BUTTONS ON TASKBAR so they are all on the one spot but I still have to sort through to find which is the one I want.

Enable the rule's "Do not apply to invisible windows" option.

Oh so that's what that rule means. I should RTM right ? ;)
Thanks so much for your help! I love Dexpot and have been showing it to friends :)

It's still happening.
I ended up ticking all of those boxes.
There was an MCI COMMAND window still popping up.
And now OutlookFBThreadWnd is there.

Never mind. That issue seems resolved now.
