Not confirmed. I followed your instructions carefully. Where did you click in step 5? I can click on the sync tool or Total Commander, but then the compare tool will not be minimized - the sync tool just goes to the foreground. Tested with TC 9.22 x64 on Windows 10 pro 1803.

Can anyone else reproduce this problem?

I also can't reproduce that behaviour

It is tricky bug, it is not 100% reproducible, there are some conditions i found they are important to reproduce
* In step 3, mark "History.txt" file not just putting the cursor on it
* Don't use keyboard in any step
* The compared files should contains many lines so there are some pages to scroll down.

I have recorded this video, i hope it help you.

Note that, the compare contents window was minimized and disappeared once i clicked on Next difference button, then it worked normally after restoring.

I cannot confirm this either yet - I've tested under both Windows 10 and Windows 7 - excatly as described and showed in the video.

Are you perhaps using some kind of mouse gesture tool? Maybe it's also part of the mouse driver?

No i'm not using mouse gesture tool or any other mouse tool.
The driver is Microsoft driver dated Wed 21/06/2006, version 10.0.17134.1

As i said it is not 100% reproducible let's say it is at least 95% reproducible, sometimes i follow the exact same steps but it isn't occur.

I have closed all background applications maybe there is one cause that behavior but it is still occur though.

Sorry, no luck so far, I couldn't reproduce it. I followed your steps as in the video 10 times (with a fresh ini), not using the keyboard, but it didn't occur here.
