This is what I did to work out what was stealing focus after BigBox loads at boot-up: Create a file called activewindow.ps1 with the following code: Add-Type @" using System; using System.Runtime.InteropServices; using System.Text; public class APIFuncs { [DllImport("user32.dll", CharSet = CharSet.Auto, SetLastError = true)] public static extern int GetWindowText(IntPtr hwnd,StringBuilder lpString, int cch); [DllImport("user32.dll", SetLastError=true, CharSet=CharSet.Auto)] public static extern IntPtr GetForegroundWindow(); [DllImport("user32.dll", SetLastError=true, CharSet=CharSet.Auto)] public static extern Int32 GetWindowThreadProcessId(IntPtr hWnd,out Int32 lpdwProcessId); [DllImport("user32.dll", SetLastError=true, CharSet=CharSet.Auto)] public static extern Int32 GetWindowTextLength(IntPtr hWnd); } "@ while(1) { $w = [apifuncs]::GetForegroundWindow() $len = [apifuncs]::GetWindowTextLength($w) $sb = New-Object text.stringbuilder -ArgumentList ($len + 1) $rtnlen = [apifuncs]::GetWindowText($w,$sb,$sb.Capacity) write-host "Window Title: $($sb.tostring())" sleep 1 } Then: Open LaunchBox. Click: Options > General > Startup Applications Add application: Application Path: C:\Windows\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell.exe Command-Line Parameters: The path/name of your ps1 file created above. Start With: BigBox Reboot When BigBox loads, wait until it loses focus, then click to give it focus and exit. You should see a command prompt window with a 1s log of the applications which have focus. This should help you identify what is stealing the focus. In my case it was a remote control application called SplashTop. I couldn't stop the behaviour so I reverted to the longer start-up video "solution". You may be more lucky! I hope that helps.
