Neither 1.2 nor 1.3 versions run on Win7

Under Win 7 if fr0st starts, but is not visible, simply hover the mouse on its tray icon to see the preview. Then right click, and select maximise. You can then resize the window.

Try deleting your config.cfg file in the fr0st folder. If that doesn't solve the problem, I will have to look at it more closely.

Hi Matthias,

Your suggestion worked fine. Thank you - I use Fr0st a lot.

Hi Vitor,

Thank you for your reply, yet I do not see any cfg files in Fr0st directory.
But now it does not matter since the tip from Matthias worked and version
1.3 is usable again on my Win 7 workstation.
