I asked a week or so ago about my "No Available Windows" error, and was asked
for an image. When you think about it, if there is no window available then a
screenshot izn't possible either. I shot the screen with my cellphone - let's
hope I can transfer it on this text only system.
Nope. It's pretty simple, just a rectangle containing "No Available Windows",
no other information.
Anybody have any ideas what's controlling this, some startup parameter I can
change?

of course it's possible. a screen shot generates a file, no window

been an issue since forever.
a little searching suggests pressing too hard on the force touch
trackpad can cause it, so don't press so hard or disable it entirely.
another possibility is invoking mission control with no open windows.
if not, post the console log around the time of the error.
redact any personal information that you don't want to share.

You were asked for a lot of things.

I got a question. If you guys know so much about women, how come
you're here at like the Gas 'n' Sip on a Saturday night
completely alone drinking beers with no women anywhere?

they work or feel.
a force touch trackpad is indistinguishable from an old style trackpad,
except when the computer is off, it's that good.
