I've been dealing with this really annoying bug on Windows 11. When I minimize a window, especially in Outlook, I can't seem to bring it back up easily. I can see the preview when I hover over it, but when I click to restore it, nothing happens. The window stays minimized, and the preview disappears. This happens multiple times, usually 5-10 clicks before it works. It's especially frustrating after waking my computer from sleep mode. I've tried hovering longer and clicking repeatedly, but nothing seems to help. It's been a few months, and it's annoying enough that I want a solution, but not urgent enough to call a tech expert. Interestingly, my colleagues are experiencing the same issues. Any idea why this is happening and how I can fix it?

It sounds super frustrating! Maybe it’s something related to the system’s BIOS settings or disk setup? Just be careful, though, changing those can lead to bigger issues. Always back up your data first!
Since your colleagues are facing the same issues, it might be worth bringing it up with your IT department. They could have solutions for these bugs, especially since it seems to affect multiple people. Sometimes low-priority issues don’t get attention unless they happen to impact a lot of users.
Have you tried running the commands `sfc /scannow` and `dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth`? Those usually fix a lot of common issues in Windows. And for Outlook, a repair on Office could help too. It might seem basic, but it’s often the first step in troubleshooting these kinds of problems.
Definitely check that your Windows is updated. Sometimes these bugs are known issues that Microsoft rolls out fixes for. And if you haven't already, consider reinstalling Outlook to see if that clears up any glitches you're hitting.
