Description:
Sometimes in Windows you can't switch back to Lazarus. You click on Task Bar button to go to Lazarus, but only the code window refreshes. All other windows (including Lazarus main menu / toolbar) don't show up.
When Lazarus starts, everything works fine. After some time (say 15 minutes) working in Lazarus one notices that using Task Bar for switching doesn't work anymore. It can switch to any application EXCEPT Lazarus. Fortunately, at that point ALT-TAB usually still works as expected.
Than after 20-30 minutes of coding in Lazarus, ALT-TAB stops responding as well. The only thing that still functions is using Minimize application / Restore application. But after some time even that doesn't work.
Switching between different applications is essential during program development. I marked the bug as "minor" because there's no "medium" category, but it's a very annoying bug.
