Maybe you can change the kind of the progress windows that they are no longer have a own place in the taskbar. This boxes should be inside of MC and not outside with a own place on the taskbar.

That is not the problem. Problem is that Windows have change how they decided what window to but pack into focus. It's a bug in Windows. But since not many program does this. I suspect this bug is not there top priorotiy.

I had seen your post, too. But this thread is older, and heading and description are more detailed. That’s why I choose to post here, even though Matthias (Author) posted a more recent answer in your thread.
But I think, you have a good point. It’s odd that the copy/move/delete dialog gets its own icon in the task bar and is not stacked above the “main” icon. Maybe this might really solve the problem.

That is not the problem. What is shown on the taskbar does not matter. Problem is that when active windows goes away the next window in the stack should be set to focus.
And most of the times it is MC. But if you navigated away from MC And then back to the progress windows, Then it should not be MC that pops up when it goes away.
Problem is that Windows takes the wrong window. But it only happens in some special condition like when windows are run from background thread and dialog is not modal.
Ulfhednar:
I've had the same problem since win10 1809.
When I have multiple windows open it will pull up the last viewed window, losing MC focus.
I do not need to navigate away during the MC operation, just to move around with MC & other windows running.
e.g. I use the browser then switch to MC, run an op, wait for MC to complete it's task & then browser will pop-up.
BUT If I navigate up/out from the source dir whilst op is running I do not lose focus
I am suspicious of the VGA driver involvement in this as it appears more frequent on some AMD driver versions than on NVDA. I do not have enough different hardware to test this suspicion fully tho :(

I think this is not related to any video driver issues since I have an Intel GPU (inside a CPU) and an nVIDIA GPU which both show the same behavior.
And Matthias already stated that this seems to be a bug in the window handler of Windows 10 1809.
Mathias (Author):
No, Gfx drivers is not the cause.. it is a change/bug in Windows since Windows 1809.
And I'm working on a workaround, whoever it require a lot of redesign in how progress dialogs and error dialog are handled, So it have taken some times but it is almost ready for the next beta version.
