Simple One - GUI is Minimized

[litlmike]

For some crazy reason, I cannot figure this one out. When I HotKey the GUI, it GUICreates, but it is minimized even though I use GUISetState(@SW_SHOW). I even tried WinActivate with no luck. What am I missing here.

Thanks in Advance.

Wow Mike a 4 finger (Salute) HotKeyCombo

Just for testing, change your hotkey to use a single key something like F2 etc.

I changed that in your code and it worked for me, Window maximised.

Changed the HotKey, but no dice, still doesn't work. I find that interesting that it works on your PC fine. Hmmm......

Try adding:

WinActivate($GUI_Win_Title)

after your WinSetState.

Sad conclusion to this problem:

Reboot.

After figuring I did everything right in the code, I tried rebooting and it worked.
