Bug Description

After installing 5.5.5 on Windows 10, I can no longer minimize Homebank windows independently.

The main window, account windows, report windows, budget... anything I've tried, all seem to be linked as one.

I also cannot bring the main window above any of the other windows.

On the taskbar, Homebank does not give different windows to choose from. (I'll have to double check, but I believe as of 5.5.4, you could select from the different open windows separately.)

This is vastly different than previous behaviour, and is very frustrating to use (especially with a single monitor, but even otherwise). Was this an expected change?

I think it is because of:
#1965594 Children windows should be transient for their parents

In linux, you still can minimize independently
so I think I should only do this for the linux os when detected and not for Windows.
