| Does anyone know or have something that can minimize Maplestory in it's windows mode? Yes, alt tab works, but Maplestory stays open, in the background. I wanna keep it down in the taskbar. Anyone know how? ALT ENTER IS WINDOWS MODE. IT DOESNT NOT MINIMIZE IT. ALT TAB ONLY MAKES IT GO DOWN FOR A SECOND. WHEN YOU OPEN A NEW WINDOW, IT POPS UP AGAIN IN THE BACKGROUND. Meaning, when u resize the new window, such as firefox, u can see maplestory behind. http://i78.photobucket.com/albums/j102/bestmister/desktoppicture.png You see? Alt tab and Alt enter and ALT esc makes maplestory not the main window, but remains in the back. i wanna make it all minimized, like AIM and MSN (as u can see, no AIM and MSN windows are open) [quote] pikachuwilly : clrt+alt+delete. then on task manager go to applications and right click maplestory. There should be the option to minimize [/quote] this guy solved it. But anyone know a shortcut? Do you SEE the difference? Try it, you'll see that it's different from ALT tab/esc/enter |

| ALT ESC does not minimize maplestory to the taskbar. Minimized to taskbar means u cant see maplestory at all, only the name at the bottom. Opening a new window will make maplestory run in the back. |

| Alt tab DOES make it go on the taskbar. Well, with vista at least. |

| You use Alt+Esc whenever maplestory is in full screen and it will minimize same with alt+tab. Since it shows your maplestory is in windowed mode doing alt tab or alt esc wont minimize the game. Try Alt+Esc or Alt+Tab when maplestory is fullscreen and it will work. I'm using windows 7 and it works for me perfectly fine. |

| My god guys. Alt+Esc sends it to the background of the previous program. Alt+Enter MAXIMIZES IT (in this case of MapleStory; fullscreen), or makes it WINDOWED. Not minimized. I just noticed -- there is indeed no way of sending it to the taskbar. But, here's the reason why: process eating programs (MapleStory is.. well not that eating, but still counts as 'heavy' for the processor) are rather NOT sent to the taskbar, cause of the enormous amount of 'power' they need to completely 'disable' the process but keeping it open, en back open again which processes all data it has to show at once. Hence why there is no minimizing; because MapleStory has an active connection and loads new data all the time. |

Not being a jerk, it's just that you tried to act so smart xD |
