Cannot reproduce. I tried it with these cases:
1. TC is permantently attached to the taskbar -> right click on taskbar icon, then right click on "Total Commander", then set to minimized
2. TC is NOT attached to the taskbar -> right click on Desktop icon ,set to minimized

All this was tested on Windows 7 x64.

What are you doing differently?

I tested that in virtualbox (win7 x64 English )again.And this time tc started properly .

Maybe it's a os language problem.(My computer was installed a Chinese OS)

Hmm, no idea - can you tell me how exactly you launch TC minimized?

Manually put that shortcut to the Startup Folder.

So TC can start with windows.

There was no problem with β14.

The problem is still there on β16.

I haven't changed anythin because I cannot reproduce it.

Can you send me your wincmd.ini to beta at ghisler dot com, please?

[1hui]

Thank you for remind me of the ini file thing.

I found that:

[Configuration]
TrayIcon=1
[1440x900 (8x16)] <=====================
-------------------------- Reason of starting improperly.
maximized=1 <=======================

"1440x900" is my screen resolution.

I tested it on virtualbox {change 1440x900 to 1440x791(screen resolution of my vitualbox)}.
Confirmed.

Hi, now I can confirm this bug.
If wincmd.ini contains "Maximized=1" for your current screen resolution and you set TC to start minimized (using Explorer's File properties dialog), you get this:

When you close that window and remove one of those settings, TC will start working again. However, for some reason, TC modified my wincmd.ini during that crash:

1. panel settings were reset (sections [Left] and [Right])
2. QuickSearchAutoFilter=1 => 0
3. Show=1 => 2

The rest of wincmd.ini was unchanged (I had a backup to compare).

This bug occurs only in 64b version of TC. Tested TC80b16 running on english Win 7 x64.
