Re: XP and minimize button

Okay, sorry John,

I had it a little off. Here's the scenario.

He has the window as per normal, and there's the regular buttons at the top right, including the "-" that represents "minimize". Here's what happens when he does minimize.

Normally it will appear on the taskbar. But on his system, it "disappears", and is nowhere to be seen. But if he right-clicks on the taskbar, and selects "Task Manager", then the application appears in that window, and he can click it and it comes back. It's an extra irritating hassle.

Any suggestions?

-- Alan


Does minimize still appear as a menu option if the user clicks the
top-left icon or right-clicks the title bar?
