Down arrow minimises window when full screen 2020.03.01

[harryrogers]

One quirk I've just come across with the latest version.
If the WINDOW command is used in the config.txt to create a full screen (WINDOW = 100) then use of the down arrow causes the app to minimise.
I replicated this behaviour on on 2 machines

Oops, in full screen vDos has no caption bar with a system menu.
No system menu (and minimize entry) causes Windows to ignore Win+Dn. To make Win+Dn behavior consistent, I added code to do that in full screen. But forgot to check for the Win key being down.

Fixed, I'll notify in this thread when vDosSetup is updated. Probably a second unrelated fix will follow.

Thanks - that's good service!

All the best

I just now updated vDosSetup.

Many thanks Jos - I'll give it a go now.
Just a note, if others have an issue running the install - Our antivirus (AVG Business 19.7.3103) breaks the install (without any notification on its part!) when I run the vDos setup program I get 'ShellExecuteEx failed code 299. Only part of a ReadProcess Memory or WriteProcessMemory request was completed'
- Temporarily disabling the AV allows install to run normally -
All the best

I noticed AVG is no longer among the scan engines of virustotal.com (0 detections out of 72 scans).
Just now submitted a false positive report to AVG. Though if I recall correctly, AVG isn’t that responsive with those reports.

That seems to be running nicely now, thanks. [We have used AVG for many years and it's undoubtedly become more troublesome recently. When our contract is up I'll look elsewhere.]

I got a response of AVG:
