…windows or moving to desktop. re nvaccess#6671 Somehow, when pressing Windows=M or Windows+D, NVDA says, 'pane'. It turns out there is a window with the window class name of 'WorkerW' that presents a focus event. Thus suppress this, which means NVDA will no longer announce 'pane' when minimizing Windows. This bug affects various versions of Windows (tested with Windows 7 and Windows 10).

Hi,
I meant to bring this up a few years ago but couldn't determine the problem...
In some cases, when pressing Windows+M or Windows+D to go to Desktop, NVDA says, "pane". Turns out a focus event is fired by a window with the class name of "WorkerW".
As for fixing this, all the building blocks are present (thankfully, app module for explorer.exe contains gainFocus event handler).
Thanks.
