4.3 only runs minimized for me, 4.1 works fine, I'm on Windows 7

[Scott Pritchett]

Windows 7 32 bit, 4.3 shows splash then shows running in taskbar, clicking the icon in the taskbar runs another instance, at no time does the app open a gui. 4.1 works fine for me.

Can you post your preferences file here, it is in:
C:/Users/--your user name--/Application Data/homebank
you may try to rename it (with .old) and then test again.

Don't know how your file get corrupted:
[Windows]
Wal=-32000;-32000;1276;738;
Acc=-8;-8;1276;738;

the negative value position (-32000) the window out of the screen.

Thank you for the reply,

I bet it has something to do with me plugging in a usb 2nd monitor,
then later unplugging it, I bet the coordinates got screwed then.

Anyway a little path has to be done to avoid top and right to be negative !!

[Maxime DOYEN (mdoyen)]

Patched for v4.4.
Ensure left and top position for windows to be positive integer

I think that there is still a problem with this.

I attached a HD TV to my laptop a few days ago. It was positioned above my normal desktop (in virtual terms).

I ran HomeBank that day.

Come back to HomeBank today with no TV plugged in - and HomeBank is running (the taskbar preview and superkey + tab show that), but it's not visible on my screen. My current resolution is 1440 x 900, and here is the what my preferences file says
