Autopoint for Windows?

Hi,

Does anyone know if there's something like Autopoint available for Windows? I'm forced to use this OS at work, and it annoys me that I constantly have to click on different windows to activate them. I'm more used to AmigaOS where windows get automatically selected, thanks to the Autopoint commodity.

Thanks for any info...

@daveyw

I think what you're looking for is to activate a window by hovering over it?

If so.
* Open the Ease of Access Center.
* Open the Make the mouse easier to use selection.
* Click the box next to 'Activate a window by hovering over it with the mouse'
* Click Apply, and Okay

Give it a try. If you don't like it open it up again and deselect the option. Applying and saving again.

Good luck!
