GUI Opens Minimized - gw1500se - Apr-12-2022
I have migrated a script that was running on Windows 7 to 10. Since the migration the Tkinter window is opening minimized (python 3.10.4) while that was not the case under Windows 7 (python 3.8.13). I hope it is not necessary to post all the code since it works under 3.8.13 but there must be something different I need under 3.10.4 to make the window open normal. Can someone help? TIA.

Does that opened minimized?
import tkinter as tk
root = tk.Tk()
root.title('Window')
root.geometry('600x400+50+50')
root.mainloop()

You should not need to post the whole code but I expect just a bare minimum of code that displays a tkinter window that shows the problem at hand would be required.

Thanks for the replies.

Here is the relevant code (I think I edited out all the unnecessary stuff) but there may be some selenium objects in there just for clarity as to where variables come from.

Have you tried this code?

RE: GUI Opens Minimized - Axel_Erfurt - Apr-12-2022
I mean the code you posted?

That's not a very useful example since it cannot be run to demonstrate the problem. In the real code do you withdraw the top window? If so, how do you make the window appear?

I make the window appear by clicking on the minimized icon on the task bar.
