How come it wont minimize when i use end task way? It used to work but now it doesnt. Very strange and i dont want to use alt tab because the game will pop up when i click on something else like internet explorer. Any solutions out there? thx

you can use show desktop :S but it isnt really a fix for it, but i just click outside game window and bring other things to front...

there are desktop tools which lets you minimize programs, not really a silkroad tool, just one of those desktop things like thumbwin

I use windows key + D, its fast to do and it minimizes it, but it will show when you click on something.

at least it should. I only use end process but it should close it.


He means he used task manager ("End task way") to go to the application and minimize it, not actually ending the SRO processs.

Still works for me.. dunno why it isn't work for you, sorry!

alt tab ruins the game and makes everything big or disappear. Its just weird. I used to minimize ctrl alt delete way but now it doesnt work.
