I have Audacity running and choose to minimize the window. From there, although the task bar responds when I select the icon, it does not present the window again. I have to click on the desktop icon as if to open a new session and the original shows. Unfortunately, it opens as full screen. If I were to click the center icon to reduce from full screen, it hides the screen instead.
This just started happening yesterday.
Whats more, I have two WIN10 systems. This happens on only one of them....
Windows 10 taskbar VS Audacity 2.1.1
Forum rules
This forum is for Audacity on Windows.
Please state which version of Windows you are using,
and the exact three-section version number of Audacity from "Help menu > About Audacity".
Audacity 1.2.x and 1.3.x are obsolete and no longer supported. If you still have those versions, please upgrade at https://www.audacityteam.org/download/.
The old forums for those versions are now closed, but you can still read the archives of the 1.2.x and 1.3.x forums.

Re: Windows 10 taskbar VS Audacity 2.1.1
And it only happens with Audacity, I presume?
Re: Windows 10 taskbar VS Audacity 2.1.1
So far, yes. Only with Audacity and only on one of two Win 10 computers.
I have performed a shutdown twice now.

Re: Windows 10 taskbar VS Audacity 2.1.1
I assume the other machine does that? I think that is a minor bug. And in any case there is a known bug that clicking the icon when Audacity is already running should open a new project window (at the same size).Emerogork wrote:I have Audacity running and choose to minimize the window.

Try holding SHIFT and pressing the Shutdown button in the Start Menu which does a cold boot into a new kernel session.Emerogork wrote:I have performed a shutdown twice now.
The default shut down saves the old kernel session in the hibernation file, then uses that old session when booting up. So it probably won't solve any problems you may be trying to fix.
