On my machine, RTW2 freezes when I minimize its window. They disappear onto the taskbar, but I can't bring them back up - clicking does nothing, and when I mouse over the icon, the preview shows the 'new game - choose save slot' window instead. Is this something the devs can look into please?

Is this something the devs can look into please? When this occurs, do a Ctrl-Alt-Del and engage the task manager. Look at processes tab, look for RTW2(32 bit). if it is there, right click on it and hit "expand". If it will not expand, then try to get a dump file and give it too the team, that is on the same list as expand. If this problem persists, you may have a problem with the size of your pagefile or you need to do an analysis of your hard disk using the error checking function or optimize and defragment drive. |

Another thing to be aware of: when you try to maximize the game it doesn't come up as full screen, it comes up as a tiny little bar with ~4 buttons in the lower left corner. You have to click the full-screen button on that tiny bar to get the RtW console back to normal size. Not sure from your post if you're already aware of this or not....

No, this appears to be a separate issue. Thank you for adding it! Hopefully the developers will be able to get a look at it. |

I've often had Windows display out-of-date mouseover frames for programs, so I don't think that's related to your issue. In any case, RTW's windows can go a bit squirrely at times and not come to the front when brought back into focus from the task bar. Usually if you minimize absolutely everything else they'll be there hiding at the back, sometimes as the little titlebar-only window sloanjh mentioned.

Just to be clear: I'm not in any way associated with NWS other than by having played RtW for a long time. So mine was not an official response  |

I'll put this in the internal issues thread to see what can be done. Thanks.
