Posted July 21, 200816 yr I'm having a big problem in a system running XP Home SP3. In System Properties > Advanced > Performance Setting button, the first item is "Animate windows when minimizing or maximizing." I keep having to uncheck this box since it continuously rechecks itself. Oddly, when it has rechecked itself, what is supposedly the controlling setting in the Registry is still on "0" or false (HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop\WindowMetrics > MinAnimate). How can this function turn itself on when the Registry setting still shows it turned off? I thought the Registry was the ultimate controller. I'm not aware of any other program that could be causing this. It's been going on for some time now, well before SP3. Thanks for any ideas on how to fix it. Larc
