Latest version on W10 desktop machine.

1. Setting to open message in a new window does not work. Insists on making a new tab instead.

2. When Thunderbird window is active, kills attempts to use desktop icons for other programs.

3. Cannot minimize Thunderbird via taskbar. Have to hit minimize(-) from window.

Can any of these be remedied?
