Also with windows 10 I've found a can of lighter fluid and one of those long matches can be helpful. Kidding! But seriously, computers sometimes respond to threats.

I think you have a combination of old software and not enough RAM. My setup has 32GB or RAM. 16GB is generally considered minimum to run PP. Your older version of PP probably would not run well in Windows 10.

funny, it ran OK on XP with a shy 4 gig of RAM...it happens at other times with other applications too, like Windows Photo viewer, same problem with switching through photos with that program. I can understand switching back to the desktop when I leave a program, and exit out, but it should not be doing that while I have a program open and simply navigating through it

Not limited to LR/PS:

If your mouse gets dragged down to the taskbar with some programs active it will pop up a thumbnail of the program it's dragged over and if your mouse is dragged up to the popup, it will show that program and hide the program you're working on. It doesn't do it all the time but it occasionally does it, probably just to shake you up.

Good, but I know I'm not doing that

thanks Bill, for a second I thought we might be onto something. I clicked off 3d accelerator in performance, and thought it helped at first, but when leaving Bridge and going into PS it stayed open for the first out of 4 images but then reverted back to the desktop upon loading the other three :(

You should continue searching using Google. But watch the terminology. Don't search for reverting to desktop. Search for Photoshop closing or Photoshop crashing.

Good Luck.

thank you Bill, been an annoying mystery that I can work around, but it slows up my editing process. It wouldn't be too bad if I were only editing 1 or 2 images, but it's more likely 200 - 1000 images that need to be done :(

Hopefully someone has an answer for me. As yet, I have not been able to find one. While working in photoshop on a Windows 10 PC the screen automatically reverts back to the desktop in between edits. Let's say I have 3 photos in the cue to be edited and as soon as I finish one the system reverts back to the desktop view, and I have to click on photoshop again in the task bar to go back to it...makes me nuts! All, or any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks

BTW, if it matters, and old version of PS and an HP laptop

What version of Ps are you using? I'm using Ps CS6 Extended with Windows 10 version 1803 with no problems. But then my PC is a i7 4-core with hyperthreading and 32 GB RAM! Though just as I updated to Windows 10 version 1903 I started having printer and network problems.

You're lucky to have that run. CS3 came out in 2007. Forward compatibility within OS's and older applications are a crapshoot. I know this doesn't help you but awareness and realistic expectations need to be judged accordingly.
