So, for some reason last night my Borderlands 2 crashed suddenly and it wouldn't allow me to close it. I had to force shut down in order to end it. So, I was pissed about that. But, that's not the big problem. Now I can't seem to access TeamSpeak because every time I try to open it the window is instantly minimized. I can't maximize it at all, it just immediately minimizes every time. I tried accessing Windows Task Manager to deal with the problem, end the task tree, reinstall it, blah blah blah. I can't open Task Manager. Yup. It does the same thing. Won't let me bring the window onto the screen, it's running but I can't see it.

Anyone know anything about this? I tried googling it but all the results were unhelpful.

I've never heard of that one before... I'm sure you tried multiple restarts, right?

Could you possibly still use like ctrl+s to connect in Teamspeak?

Hm... I don't suppose there is any way starting it up in safemode might help?

Have you turned it off and back on again?  :P

I googled it, and everything say's to run an anti-virus. Some say that it only happened a few time's and then never again...That's all I could find on that issue... Best of luck.

Restart in safe mode and start uninstalling stuff u don't use.

Yeah generally this is very commonly found in virus programs.. You might wanna start playing as if that is the cause..

Restart in safe mode, uninstall anything that you don't need (and know what it is)
Research anything oddly named or plain unusual

So yeah, I still can't get my TeamSpeak OR Windows Task Manager to open. There are no error messages, they're running but just unable to view them onscreen. I've tried restoring my system to a previous date, unfortunately the earliest I had was October 18th.. which was about 3 days past the incident.

Tried running the programs, then opening command prompt as administrator and typing

taskkill /f /im explorer.exe

Then try open team speak or something directly after

Does it just not open or not let you connect to Our teamspeak if the latter, try connecting to someone elses Teamspeak then back to ours

The program is opened but I'm unable to actually able to pull it on screen. Like I can see it on my taskbar but that's it. No other access to it

You wouldn't happen to have a projector hooked up to your computer would you?


~Zito #corrupt4dmins

Tslat

Or another monitor, for that matter

OH GOD I'VE FIXED IT!

Apparently my computer duplicated my monitor so it thought I had two. So, Tslat you were correct in a sense. I fixed it though! wooohooooo!
