File info popups stick, show over other programs

[davidwilsondesign]

I've had an issue with the last 3 or 4 updates of Bridge where the File info popups stick, and show over other programs. They gradually multiply, with more and more info boxes sticking, until I have to quit Bridge to use it at all. So I have to always keep Bridge hidden, and quit it a few times a day -- not a very efficient workflow.

Hi there,

Sorry to hear that file info popups are staying on the screen, let us help make this right.

I have a set of questions for you, that would help us in identifying and troubleshoot the issue:

• Could you please let us know the exact version of Bridge and operating system you're working on?
• Does it happen with any other application?
• Have you checked if there is any update available for Bridge or the Operating system?
• Which video card/graphics processor is installed on your computer?

Would you mind trying the steps here to see how it goes?

Please let us know if it helps.

• Apps and OS all up to date

Thanks for the additional info, could you please try resetting the preferences of Bridge and see if it helps:

• Start Adobe Bridge and immediately press Ctrl+Alt+Shift (Windows) or Command+Option+Shift (Mac OS) until the Reset Settings dialog box appears.
• Select all three options--Reset Preferences, Reset Standard Workspaces, and Purge Entire Thumbnail Cache--and then click OK.

No change. The only solution I see so far is to turn that feature off, which is too bad because it's useful to me.
