The correct option is C Active Window
The Active Window is the
term used to describe the window that is currently being used.
An active window is the
currently focused window in the current window manager or explorer. Different
window managers indicate the currently-active window in different ways and
allow the user to switch between windows in different ways.
The active window may not always
lie in front of all other windows on the screen. The active window is simply
the window to which keys typed on the keyboard are sent; it may be visually
obscured by other windows. This is especially true in window managers which do
not require a click to change active windows.
In Windows, the active
window is indicated by having a different coloured title bar. Clicking is not
the only way of selecting an active window, however: some window managers (such
as FVWM) make the window under the mouse pointer active—simply moving the mouse
is sufficient to switch windows; a click is not needed.
