Re: can not maximize pro tools window???
No, it works fine for me.
Just wondering, why do you need to minimize Pro Tools? What kind of video card do you have? Are you leaving it minimized for long periods of time? Maybe instead of using the maximize button, just drag the window as large as you need it. If you minimize now, can you click PT in your taskbar and bring it back?

benoni,
YES, you are right, once i minimize i cannot maximize , unless i trick it to open a recent session instead , win 7 , pro and why ask, "why would you need to minimize"? maybe to open other programs, etc. i tried with Microsoft Word, and it works perfect, This is definitely a bug in PT11 i can upload a video of this if needed,,, Protools 10 works perfectly |

I've seen this issue from time to time. I have to double click the PT icon on the taskbar for PT to open again.

Re: can not maximize pro tools window???
even double-clicking for me WON'T reopen,
i have to rt-click icon in taskbar, and open a different-recent project, and then hit cancel, and then it opens again (maximizes). VERY annoying !!! i wish Avid would fix this. It's only been a year |

Re: can not maximize pro tools window???
Yes, this has been happening to me too. Minimize, then have to use Task Manager, highlight Pro Tools, and "Switch To" for the PT 11.2.1 window to maximize. It was doing it in the previous version also. I'm on Win 7 Pro 64 bit.

Yep I had that too with Windows 8.1
Went back to Windows 7 Pro in the end because of other issues with my Apollo interface, problem has gone away. Last edited by lennieh; 10-09-2014 at 07:19 AM. Reason: more details |

I was going to say, get off windows 8.. or run in 7 compatibility mode.
What if you use Control F4 to minimize all windows, does it open back up doing it that way?

Re: can not maximize pro tools window???
Musiclee, I notice on your video that when you click on the PT taskbar icon, the Google Chrome icon is selected as well. Could this be where the problem lies. I use Win 7 Ultimate, but do not have Chrome on my machine. I do not suffer with this problem.
