Hi.
I did not run the qt client for months. Now I did, but after sync, I still cannot see the window of client. I am able to double click tray icon, then the app appears on taskbar, but no window will open up. Minimizing all other windows does not help, single click on qt on taskbar does not help, right click on tray icon and selecting Show/hide does not help. I can only right click qt on taskbar and choose Close. I can right click the tray icon too, where everything will open a window, except "Show/hide", "Send" and "Get" - so I can see Options etc.
I have the latest version of qt client (v0.8.5-beta), I have it fully synced (all blocks), running on Windows 7.
Why I cannot the main window? What can I do to fix that, please?
Thank you for help in advance.

Make sure you back up your wallet regularly! Unlike a bank account, nobody can help you if you lose access to your BTC.

I'm not sure how to fix it, exactly. When this happens to me, I can usually locate a . . . blank spot in the switcher I use. Does something look fishy if you Alt-tab through all your windows? If you use compiz, then enable shift switch, and you'll see that there is an invisible window in the rotation. That's your bitcoin-qt window. Possibly other switchers will reveal it similarly. - Findiggle. |

Alt-Tab shows nothing new, no client window.
I use Win64 7.

QT takes up to 10min to get started, easily... Maybe you should just be more patient. If you've waited enough, you might try to download http://processhacker.sourceforge.net/downloads.phpIt's an advanced task manager, allowing you, for example, to kill a multi-selection of processes. Find bitcoinqt.exe in the process list, and try "right-click=>Window=>Maximize", then "right-click=>Window=>Bring to Front". If not working, at least, you'll have a great task manager installed for later use (check the Network tab, for example).  |

Have you tried update/install NET Framework? I have this problem sometimes too, but only if I accidentaly open Litecoin/Bitcoin client two times in row. Try also kill all processes of qt client and start program once again.

BTW, is it some type of SysInternals superstructure? |

Great news! BTW, is it some type of SysInternals superstructure?
Not that I am aware of, I think it's an independant project. And in my book, much better than Process Explorer.  |

Sorry for necro but I don't want to open a new thread. I have the same problem. When I clicked "inputs" Core was frozen, then I closed it. After that I never see main window. I can open Debug Window but can't see main screen. I tried a lot of things, including Process Hacker mentioned in this thread but I still can't see the screen. Do you have any other ideas? Because I don't know what to do.

Try doing shift+right click on the icon in the taskbar. Then select move and just click somewhere on the screen. If you can't click the move option, then click on the desktop and make sure that no window is currently selected. |
