 MS Outlook reminder window usually stay behind. When an appointment approaches and reminder activates, window should jump on top of other windows. Not Stay-always-on-top, just when reminder is active, then it should be manually minimized again. There are myriad of options but could not find this one. Please help.

 Robert,

Please provide us a screenshot of the "MS Outlook -> File -> Options -> Advanced" pane (Reminder settings), specify and provide screenshots of which windows are open while the Reminder window appears and send us your configuration files (Actual Window Guard -> Tools -> Configuration -> Send to Tech Support).

 I do not understand. I have Outlook and its reminder window opened all the time. Above them I have 2 or 22 other windows doesn't matter: Word, Adobe, Firefox, AutoCAD, File explorer, Excel.....doesn't matter.

The problem I want to solve is: when reminder for an appointment activates/beeps I want that reminder window jumps on top of everything.

Then, when I decide and dismiss it or snooze it, I should be able to minimize it again. Of course, MS Outlook -> File -> Options -> Advanced" pane (Reminder settings),is set. Reminder windows does something, but in background, it does not attract my attention, which it should.

I didn't set anything in AWG config file, because I do not know what. That's why I am asking you for help. I installed trial AWG because I heard it can solve the problem (Microsoft can't, I checked on forums). This is not Stay always on top feature, and I do not see any other feature that can help. AWG has many options and cases to implement, but if AWG can't solve this particular problem, OK, I will uninstall it.

 Robert,

I added the following Specific Settings for MS Outlook reminder windows and the Specific Settings work as expected:
User added an image
User added an image

Please try to create the same Specific Settings and inform us about your results.
