Hello,

So, I run Guiminer-scrypt fro Litecoin and it works fine, I was running Guiminer for bitcoin/terracoin and it worked fine, but all of a sudden it no longer works. The Icon shows up in the task bar and in the tray but the GUI will not show on the Desktop. I have downloaded the latest files and still doesn't work. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Try rightclicking the icon in the taskbar, and select restore.

If that does not work, select close and restart it.

BitCoin is NOT a pyramid - it's a pagoda.

Thanks, but I have done both multiple times. I have deleted and downloaded and installed multiple times as well.

Found the solution:

Quote
Open up a guiminer and click elsewhere to lose focus
In the taskbar, left-click once on the Guiminer icon so it gains focus
Now, press "ALT-Space" (you will see a menu appear were guiminer should be)
Press "M" to choose the Move option (your cursor will now turn into four arrow points).
Press any of the cursor keys once (this will move your guimineron the screen and it will be captured by the mouse)
Move your mouse about and you will see the guiminer moving with it
Left-Click to "drop" guiminer onto your desktop
