Cannot maximize programs that have been minimized
Cannot maximize programs that have been minimized
This is a fairly recent issue, over the last 2 weeks, I have experienced an issue where I connect to another PC and if I minimize a program running on the remote PC or if it was already minimized, I cannot restore it. I am using 1.2.0.5 in both locations and I have tried connecting to different PCs running Windows 8.1 and Windows 7. The PCs I have used to connect from are Windows 7 or Windows 8.1 as well. I have had to get my customer to actually maximize the programs for me so that I could fix his problem. I have also tried to change the Connection Options from ZRLe, Tight, Hextile, Ultra, and U2. I am at a loss, any help would be appreciated.

UAC ?
cause: vnc started as normal user can not control elevated windows ( started with UAC prompt)
Possible your customer has a elevated window open, minizing your window put focus on the elevated and input is locked
by UAC.
workaround
Start vnc as service or start vnc with "runas admin"
