Hello Community,
After upgrading to Cisco Jabber version 15.0.2.59721 (Build 309721), we started experiencing a strange behavior across several Windows 10 workstations.
Problem:
Jabber intermittently brings its window to the foreground without user interaction.
It does so silently (no incoming call, no chat popup, no system notification), disrupting whatever the user is doing — including fullscreen presentations or remote sessions.
🧪 Observations:
- The issue is reproducible on multiple devices.
- Occurs whether Jabber is minimized or running in background.
- No specific event or user action seems to trigger the focus switch.
- Nothing noticeable appears in Event Viewer or Jabber logs at the moment it happens.
- Jabber is configured to start automatically at login with standard settings.
Impact:
This behavior interrupts workflows and reduces user experience quality, especially during calls, demos, or screen sharing.
Questions:
- Has anyone else experienced similar focus-stealing behavior with this version?
- Is there any known bug, patch, or configuration tweak to prevent this?
- Could this be related to background syncs (e.g., Outlook calendar, presence updates)?
We haven’t found any workaround yet. Any help or guidance would be appreciated!
Thanks in advance,
