Hi,

I have Virtual PC installed on Windows 7 Ultimate, 64 bit. When Virtual PC
is minimized to the system tray and I restart, the console will open on the
desktop. I thought Virtual PC was supposed to restart in what ever state it
was in when closed.

Does it need something added to the entry in the run section of the registry
or is the setting to start in last state located within the program?

I appreciate in advance any help.

Thanks,
Norm

I know I should not write these at 5 am Forget the part about the run key
in the registry. I have a shortcut in the startup folder to start the
program. I have set the shortcut to run in compatibility for Windows XP SP3
and also set it to start minimized and run as administrator. Even with these
setting it still starts showing the console on the desktop, instead of
minimized to the system tray, where it was when shutdown.
