I'd remove such a program immediately from my system.

It is bad programming style to violate the conventions of a system, so I
suspect that the program will have odd behaviour in other aspects, too. And
before I risk to damage my system with tricky tracky stuff, I simply recycle it.

I also don't understand, why most installations programs run full screen,
but then require me to close all running apps, or to enter directories and
other things, that I must search for somewhere else :-(

And then there's the continuing questions in this NG about how
to scale a form larger to fit a higher resolution.  Kind of
takes away the whole point of having the higher resolution,
doesn't it!

BTW, I know this is off-topic for this thread and newsgroup,
but given a maximized program that is running, is there any way
to access (manually) the Win95 Start button without resizing
the program?

CTRL-ESC usually works for this.  ALT-TAB can normally be used to switch to
another running app.
