The window turning grey means the program is (temporarily) not responding.
It happened all the time on my Wife´s Acer Aspire One SSD.

You CAN turn off the grey-out feature, but after a couple of days my wife wanted it back because it stopped her from pointlessly clicking away in an unresponsive program.

Can you help with this problem?
