Run as administrator works, otherwise the program window is not visible

[perge]

A couple of days ago, I run Ant Renamer as usually --what a great program it is!-- only to find out that it does not open a visible window on my desktop anymore. The program does run, its icon shows up on the task bar, but there is no window of it. The Restore option on the window thumbnail on the taskbar is grayed-out.

If I start the program with the Run as administrator option it opens fine.

I am on Windows 10. What has happened?

Hi,
One possibility is that it was opened in another screen, outside the current visible area?
Or moved by accident.
When running as admin maybe it uses another setting file and so it resets its default position.
You can try to force moving it by pressing Alt+Space when the Ant Renamer window is active in the taskbar, then press "M" (for "Move"), press one of the keyboard arrows to initiate the move. After that if you move your mouse the window should follow.
If that does not work, another thing to try is to edit the preferences file, but try the above first.

Your guess was spot on! Thank you!

Actually, I remember that the problem occurred when I remotely accessed my pc from a small laptop with Anydesk.

Thank you again.
