I suddenly am having a strange Finder Window problem - the two same windows continue to reopen on their own no matter which program I'm working, and no matter how many times I close the windows. They open whether I have programs open or not. Its really annoying - doing it even as I type this message. I've repaired disk permissions et al = nothing hellps.
Is the a 10.4.7 bug? I just downloaded and this began. Or is it something else? Anyone experience anything like this before? Thanks.
 
Which windows are they specifically? How do they open (zoom in, zoom out showing all open windows, abruptly appear)? Do you by chance move the pointer to a corner?

Sounds like you might have the Hot Corners enabled for Expose, but without more information on the anomaly it's hard to pinpoint.
 
Hi - thanks for responding. Has nothing to do with Expose. Finder windows open no matter what - always same two windows from files, completely unasked for. ALWAYS identifical windows. THey are the list view (the middle formation) with favorites on left, and complete list of file contents inside the window on right. Just as I would open them normally.
I use no other finder application. I have searched forums and there are no other related discussions. I've rebooted, repaired disk permissions, nothing helps. Someone suggested trying to create new user to test that. will try. if you have suggestions appreciate.
 
If the infromation is private, you can edit the screenshot by either blurring the contents shown or blanking it out completely by filling it in with a white color. It's just to get a feel for the view your getting since it's hard to discern from the description given without seeing the problem (like trying to describe wind in words without the sensation, kwim?). Not that your second description is bad...it was a good one...but it still baffles me as to what it might be. :confused:
