My sister owns a HP Pavilion G6, which came with Windows 8. About four months ago it automatically upgraded her to 8.1 an since then she's had several problems.
I have fixed most of them, but one peculiar issue remains.
Whenever you open a program/window, it immediately minimizes itself to the task bar.
If you try to click or key press to bring it back up, it again minimizes itself.
I have found two work arounds :
A) Leave the system idle for five minutes
B) Hold either CTRL or ALT key, and then mouse click to bring the window back up
After step B, I hit ALTGRAVE key once, and then the windows behave normally for a time.
This happens immediately after boot and randomly during normal operation.
I've disabled a lot of the touch pad features and gestures, trying to limit any user input error or other miscellaneous potential sources of the problem.
