Simple question ... Anyone know how to set WMC "Always on top" in Win8 Pro?
That control option seems to me 'missing' in Win8 WMC.

I'm afraid you'll need to use a 3rd party solution for that (I think).
I've never tried any but I believe google will bring up some options if nobody suggests anything specific.

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Media Center\Settings\MCE.PerUserSettings]
"enableAlwaysOnTop"=dword:00000001
Didn't try it yet because I still need to install Windows 8. Maybe you could confirm if it works.

There's a (very short) thread on AVSForums that confirms that that key should work.

Reg key edit was the fix ... worked like a charm!
