We are not able to reproduce this, and this type of behavior, really has to be an operating system level problem. It makes no technical sense for it to be be a problem within Sierra Chart.

It does not matter, if it did not occur in older versions. There are changes with what we call MDI child windows, but Sierra Chart is doing nothing wrong with its implementation with those and we also have no other reports of this.

We do recommend this as the solution:
With all this being said, I also tried to switch Global Setting -> General Setting -> GUI -> Destroy Chart Windows When Hidden -> to Yes and I can tell this behaviour stopped happening.
