VC++: modeless dialog window - how to keep it on top?

I need the modeless dialog window to be always on top as the main
application window is. Is there any window message sent to window when it is
obscured by any other window?

I can't get my custom-made modeless dialog box (Visual C++.net Win32) to respond to clicking the close button or pressing Alt-F4. I am using the IsDialogMessage to check if messages are for my dialog. However, my dialog procedure doesn't seem to get a WM_DESTROY message when I click the close button.

Does anyone know if a modeless dialog box can be made to stay open when the parent window is closed? Maybe something to do with disabling the parent/owner? I basically need to have a popup window which is always the top most browser window, but still allows the user to continue browsing using the parent browser window (therefore any onblur=self.focus() isn't suitable), and isn't closed when the parent window is. Any ideas?

I'm currently writing a small program that churns on a repetitive task while displaying a progress & cancel modeless dialog. I've been having problems due to threadlocking, and I was wondering if anyone could give me some advice. Basically when I create the modeless dialog, I'm assuming that C# under the covers will be implicitly creating a new thread for the modeless dialog's message pump. Thus I protect the state determiners with a...

In IE, I am using showModalDialog to pop up a modeless window, then the object "opener" is undefined. well, I pass the parent window object as an argument to pop up, then I can redirect the parent url. The problem is, when I redirect the parent url, the popup is closed automatically, I guess it's the normal behavior coz the popup is a modeless dialog.

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
