I think this started soon after I installed some stuff for my wireless keyboard/mouse set. But I can't find the option anywhere to turn it off. Basically, when I move my mouse over another window, the focus will change to that window. It's very annoying for when I'm typin in one window and then have to have the mouse in that same window, otherwise I'll be typing in the window that lies behind the one I really want to be typing in. I've tried tweakVI, and nothing there. I know it's possible in tweakUI, but that's just for XP. I've got Vista Ultimate 32bit. ANy suggestions? this is really starting to get on my nerves...
mouse hover auto-focus window?

Um try to contact the company that made your mouse about it, go on their site on the forums search for it try to see if you need updates for it.

Try searching around the accessibility options in the control panel, as i'm sure the option to turn it off or on is there. I turned it ON through the accessibility options, cuz i'm just too lazy!

it's been quite a while since last reply but maybe someone will find this helpful.
this hover-activation was automaticaly enabled when i installed tweakui from xp powertoys. you can disable it this way (XP):
1. start -> run -> type "tweakui" -> enter
2. mouse -> x-mouse -> uncheck "activation follows mouse (x-mouse)

This works!!! I was also somewhat annoyed with it!
Want to comment?
