    Anyone knows how to deal with ghost windows in XP? How to get rid of the ghost windows in windows XP system with Platform SDK? Thanks. Windows XP: If a top-level window stops responding to messages for more than several seconds, the system considers the window to be hung and replaces it with a ghost window that has the same Z order, location, size, and visual attributes. This allows the user to move it, resize it, or even close the application. However, these are the only actions available because the application is actually hung. When in the debugger mode, the system does not generate a ghost window. reference from MSDN. :eek: mIchAel Liu

      Until you learn to write a subject line that is 1 - not an attempt at giving me/us an ORDER and 2 - learn to not fill it with completely annoying characters; I have but one advice for you: Have a nice day, go play on the highway.

        Did you try FindWindow? Apparently, no one knows the answer since you've posted this at least 3 times already. Look in newsgroups.

          why not fix the hang? I happen to like the ability to close programs that are misbehaving!
