pcsoft.us.windevCopyright 2026, PC SOFT14 Jun 2016 09:55:00 Z11 Jun 2016 10:17:00 ZHi, I use a service that starts an exe (with ExeRun). This exe opens a Window visible for a few seconds and than minimize it self on SysIcon. If I starts the exe, it works fine, I can see the window and the sys icon. But if I let the service starts the exe, it doesn't show the window and neither the sys icon. Why?
