    Focus follows mouse Win 7

    Is there a way to get focus follows mouse on Win 7 Pro? I've done some cursory googling but haven't turned up anything useful.

    Thanks.

    I hope this is what you are after: https://sinewalker.wordpress.com/201...egistry-hacks/
    I've done it before for some folks.

    Hope it all works the way you envisioned it.
    This is not necessarily meant for you, but it wouldn't hurt to first create a restore point first or back up the entire "Registry". (Mistakes happen to best of us)
    Not sure what to back up? Choosing to back up the entire registry is a safe bet. If you know which registry hive you'll be working in, backing up the entire hive is another good option.
    right-click or tap-and-hold the key and then choose Export to your chosen location (IE Desktop or Documents).

    This is a computer I use occasionally at work. Theoretically everything's backed up once a week by our IT dept, but thanks for the heads up.
