-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Windows 95
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SYMPTOMS
========
When you exit a screen saver that is included with Microsoft Windows 95, the
full-screen MS-DOS window is not restored. Instead, the MS-DOS window is
minimized to a button on the taskbar.
CAUSE
=====
Windows 95 is not designed to restore MS-DOS windows to full-screen mode.
WORKAROUND
==========
To work around this behavior, run the MS-DOS-based application in a window or
click the application's button on the taskbar.
MORE INFORMATION
================
This behavior also occurs for other Windows-based applications. For example,
type "start wordpad" (without quotation marks) in a full-screen MS- DOS window.
When WordPad starts, the MS-DOS window is minimized. When you quit WordPad, the
MS-DOS window remains minimized.
