I noticed that if you call FindWindowEx
or EnumChildWindows
against a hWnd that belongs to a window that's not in the foreground, i.e. minimized, then they don't report any children. On the other hand if I first call SetForegroundWindow
against the window I'm querying, and after that FindWindowEx
or EnumChildWindows
, they report all the children. Next calls report all the children even if the window I'm interested in is not in foreground. It's almost it does some sort of caching after the first call?
