HI @milboltnut

Welcome to HP Support Forums. A really great platform for posting all your questions and finding solutions.

I understand that the minimized Tab is not opening when you move the cursor to the small box

I could help.

Are you experiencing this issue with all the minimized App / Windows or only a particular minimized window?

Also may I know since when are you facing this issue?

Meantime please try a System Restore to an earlier time before the issue started 

- Shut down the computer completely.
- Turn on the computer and repeatedly press the F11 key, about once every second, until you see the Windows loading screen.
- If a language selection screen opens, select the language you want to use to continue.
- On the Choose your keyboard layout screen, select the keyboard layout that matches your keyboard type.
- On the Choose an option screen, click Troubleshoot.
- On the Troubleshoot screen, click Advanced Options.
- On the Advanced options screen, click System Restore.
- Click Windows 10 as the target operating system.
- The System Restore window opens. Click Next.
- Click the restore point that you want to use, and then click Next.
- The Confirm Restore Point window opens.
-Click Finish to restore your computer to a previous point.
- Do not interrupt System Restore when it starts. Doing so can corrupt your hard drive and create more problems. Click Yes in the warning that appears.
- System Restore returns the computer configuration to a previous point in time and restarts.
 

Keep me posted how it goes.

Thank you. 🙂
