Title: Minimize to tray at W7 startup
Post by: lebans on July 18, 2012, 03:16:59 am: AltBinz 039.8 on Windows 7 x64 Ultimate SP1u has a problem when it is told to minimize to tray at startup. With 0.39.7 and
startup command: "C:\Program Files (x86)\AltBinz\altbinz.exe" -tray it will work perfectly. After installing 0.39.8 altbinz starts
at startup with a normal open window, but it refuses to let me use the minimize or close button, only after double clicking the
systray icon I can use these buttons.

Are you saying you're having normal window but also systray icon? What about taskbar, is there altbinz?

Post by: lebans on July 18, 2012, 02:35:11 pm: When it starts there is no taskbar-icon, but there is a systray-icon. Program window will open like a normal start of altbinz. I can do anything in the program-window, except two buttons, minimize and the close button. UAC is disabled and I have admin rights.

edit: I can easely reproduce this by switching between 39.7 and 39.8. But only 39.7 will work the way I like it. (Older versions too)

Post by: lebans on July 18, 2012, 11:45:09 pm: No problem, what do you mean by "config-file", where can I find this file, searched all directories (userdata & program data, etc). By the way: I see, if the main windows opens at startup, that the login to authenticate :P occurs and altbinz will be logged in without any error. After that sequence than I cannot minimize or close the windows, like I told you before. I will hear from you.

Post by: lebans on July 19, 2012, 12:14:50 am: Oops, I found the file. :-[ , after remove this file and configure alt.binz with login-settings, still the same. 039.8 wrong, 039.7 allright.

Only after startup of 39.8, now close-button works (minimize not). This because the option to close to systray is changed to disabled (default). I allways set this enabled.
