    Magnifier in Windows 7 closes in Desktop Window Manager in Dock Mode

    While doing some experiment with magnifier in windows .I change setting dock 2 full screen to this future of magnifier . Doing so disables Desktop Window Manager which is necessary for Windows Aero to run. To return the magnifier to full screen Aero has to be operational. When I get Aero running again through the troubleshooting system in the Personalization area of the fixing transparency issues in control panel . it works fine, until the magnifier is opened again and it starts up in dock mode, disabling the DWM and Aero from menu.

    When Magnifier is running on computer press Ctrl + Alt + F. look an effect for full screen. or check in the Magnifier window under the Views Button can you change it to Full Screen. Tried to System Restore to get back to before Magnifier became an issue. How to repair the operating system and how to restore the operating system configuration to an earlier point in time in Windows Vista. it is very beneficial to create system restore point in computer. Means it very helpful restore at that date by system restore wizard. I think this will be helpful!!!

    There are various keyboard shortcuts are available to control Magnifier through keyboard .simply use the keyboard shortcuts to launch and close it to magnifier your entire desktop,

    Windows logo key + Plus to zoom in, Windows logo key + Minus to zoom out, and Windows logo key + ESC to exit.

    we can also use the option to only magnifiers an area around the pointer which works just like the real magnifier moving on your desktop, or select the dock mode that shows the magnified area at the top of dock area. We can switch them back and force using the keyboard shortcuts while you are still in the magnifier view.
    1. Ctrl + Alt + F – Full screen mode , Ctrl + Alt + L – Len mode
    2. Ctrl + Alt + D – Dock mode
    3. Try out this solution.
