Sometimes when I have the wizard101 launcher open and i minimize it, i cannot get it to appear no matter how may times i click on the icon. I have to restart my computer to fix it. I am currently using windows 10.

Please help.

Thanks,

I have that issue too. You may not have to restart you computer. You can try hitting ctrl, alt, delete and going to your task manager. Then click wizard101 and hit end task. I also use windows 10 and this works for me.

There is an easy way to fix it.

On the desktop, right click on the Wiz icon, and then click Properties.
Click on Compatibility
Check the box for compatibility mode, then select Windows 8.
Click Apply.

Wiz will now run as if you're on a Windows 8 computer, so you'll be able to minimize it once again.
