    this is on Windows 8 (or maybe 8.1, not sure)

    For some reason, when I open up Razor and log in, my UO Client window gets automatically minimized. Right-clicking on it in the bottom bar give me options of:

    Ultima Online Client
    Pin this program to task bar
    Close Window

    Clicking on the first one gives me a weird dialog box that says "Another Copy of UO is already running!"

    Anyone have any idea how to maximize the window?

    Resolved, thanks Wodan.

    If you hover over the minimized bar icon, a window preview comes up, and you can right-click on THAT to maximize.

    Or press "WINDOWS-KEY + ArrowUp" while focus is on your window.
    This also resolves the problem.
    I also had it.

    Holey @#%% a use for the windows key that isn't just screwing you up in a first-person shooter.

    Side-note: I once watched a large man tear the windows key from his keyboard in a fit of rage at a LAN party. (counter-strike)

    Scenario:

    Siege Perilous. I log on, my guildies are dead to PKs in Hythloth, so I recall down there. I engage the PKs, caught them in an awkward spot, manage to kill two of them. I run from the 3rd and recover, and we begin to fight. It is fair even for a bit, then I start getting him down.

    I hammer my heal potion macro key... ALT F1... ALT F1, why is my screen freezing...

    8 million fricken Windows Help pop up... NOOOOOO!!!! I was hitting WINDOWS F1!!!!!

    I get back in, dead. Key ripped from keyboard.

    Yesterday I got a call from a nice man from possibly Bangladesh or India saying he is from "Microsoft" and that I should repair a problem. I'm a programmer, so I'm just stringing the fellow along. I work with Microsoft, they dont call you like this :) He asks what key is next to my CTRL button (do I have a Mac or Windows), I play dumb saying that somebody took out that key! (me) I strung him along for a few minutes until I started mocking him. Gotta get your kicks from the telemarketing scams somehow.

    Alt+Enter and then do it again.
