Post From: Interactive Brokers TWS window problem

IB's tech support sent me back here for this problem.
I run Windows 7. About a week ago, the TWS window started behaving strangely. When I minimize TWS, it parks above the taskbar (like an old MDI window), and then I can't get back to it without minimizing everything and clicking into it from the blank desktop. IB's tech support had me disable the API connection to Sierra Chart and restart TWS. TWS then behaves normally. IB's tech support says it has something to do with how Sierra handles the popup messages in TWS.

I can't see any popup message settings to tweak in Sierra's connection menu for IB. Do you guys have a fix for this issue? I recently upgraded java and TWS and Sierra, but can't pinpoint if any of those updates caused this issue.
