You cannot select a program that is hidden behind another object. For example, if you ask your guide to find the hidden program, the guide points to the program but you cannot see it or click it because it is behind another object. If you click where your guide is pointing, you select the object in front of the program.

= RESOLUTION =

Use the mouse to drag the covering object out of the way, then start the program you want to use.
