[Solved] Matlab popup figures even I am working on an other application.

Dear all, I have the same question like here : http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5088982/matlab-prevent-figures-from-being-made-active.

As far as I konw the solution I look for is not in any matlab programming, but in matlab or windows option. Why? I runned the same script, before on Win7 family edition and the windows did not poped up while I was working on an other software. Now, I work on Win7 Pro (Matlab has been desintalled and reinstalled) and the same script pops up my figure when I work on MS Excel for example. Seems almost nothing but it makes me so angry !

Hoping you have the explanation,

Olivier

Please try this:

 Regedit (create a backup before, as usual!)
 HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop
 Set |ForegroundLockTimeout| to decimal 0
 Logoff or restart Windows

I'm not sure if this works, because I do not have the problem on Win7SP1/64 Professional and Matlab 2009a/2011b.

[EDITED] Somebody suggested to use the hexadecimal 30d40 instead of 0. ?!

Thank you Jan Simon for your answer. In fact I can not tell you if it works or not, beacause, the problem solved by itself when I installed the 79 upgradings in windows ...

All the best
