Ooops. Looks like a bug, sorry.

Wonder how something like that wasn't mentioned by any of the 8.9 beta testers?!! Isn't anybody running maximized windows anymore (I know I'm not

)?

I'll have it fixed ASAP.

Hmm, I run apps maximized most of the time and never noticed a
problem before.
I maximized a few apps just now and clicked on the different task icons,
everything stays maximized (well, they go from min to max).

Running Xtreme 8.9 on XP Pro SP3.

But you're not running Vista, and he is (and so am I).

Under Vista, high privilege windows ignore messages sent to them by windows with lower security privileges.

In Vista a different method, which works with all windows regardless of privilege level, has to be used to restore minimized windows.

It is this different method that is flawed.
