    I’m just recovering from a major crash. When I have two, or more, windows open, I can see the other window through the borders of the current window. Kinda like looking through a bathroom window. I had this turned off in my previous OS. I can’t, for the life of me, find where this setting is. Can someone tell me where this “transparency” setting is?

    Thanks;
    Artie

      1. Click on Start.
      2. Right-click on Computer.
      3. Choose Properties from the context menu.
      4. Select Advanced system settings in left-hand pane.
      5. Select the Advanced tab.
      6. Remove the tick from the Enable transparent glass checkbox. (I think this is the effect you want to disable.)

      Hope this helps…

      This is why I love this place. 🙂
