Taskbar Problem

rollup · Post by **rollup** » Tue Sep 02, 2003 4:56 am

I just downloaded Media Monkey and overall I love the program. Unfortunately, I have a problem. When I open up MM to play songs, it works fine. However when I open up another program after MediaMonkey, (eg: browser, file viewer), that program doesn't appear in the taskbar. It's window opens up normally but when I minimize it, my taskbar is empty and I end up using Alt-TAB to navigate the programs. This happens to ALL my programs when MediaMonkey is open. Everything goes back to normal when I close MM. Everything is fine when I use Songs-DB though.
Does that make sense? Help!

I'm using WindowsME. Thanks for any help.

Thanks for the report, we aren't currently aware of any problem like this and so we will try to reproduce it somehow. Should you find any additional information, please post it here. It might be interesting to try different settings in General Options sheet - e.g. check off 'Always show tray icon', but I'm afraid it won't change anything.

Noticed same problem with Win ME but not with XP.

All MM betas also had it. However, the Songs-DB beta version 519 is fine.

Applications launced BEFORE MM are OK. Any application started AFTER launching MM does not show up in the taskbar and cannot be restored after they are minimized. They disappear. Once MM is shutdown they reappear in the taskbar. You are correct, changing the tray settings does not help. I use Win ME and thank you for looking into it. ---- MI
