Another bug - Show desktop

After a "show desktop" (minimising all windows)

Click one window on the task bar (to resume it) - and instead all windows
resume (not just one) - awkward when you're trying to minimise the amount
of activity on the desktop

Sorry, that does not happen for me either. Do you have some sort of desktop
manager installed as part of your system or video driver setup?

It doesn't happen with all windows - but i come across it daily - like right
now - i have 6 windows open including Epson scanning in some photos for me -
Epson window restores if i restore any other window - maybe it only affects
(some) running applications, but for sure it's vista bug - never, ever had
it happen on any previous OS

in fact i am quite positive it's related to Vista Sidebar since this
exhibits similar peculiar behavior some times (minimises/restores in tandem
with some apps)
