I have my Windows taskbar set for auto-hide.  When running MC I have to use the Windows key to see my taskbar IE. it will not un-hide.
Maybe it's me maybe it's a bug.

Here's what I'm running:

I have the same problem on 3 different computers, one running XP and two running wink2k.  It's a windows problem, dunno how to fix it.

I've run into this issue with MC and some other apps before. It usually occurs with apps that do their own skinning/UI rendering. But it does not seem consistent - some builds of MC don't exhibit the problem (currently not happening with 9.1.305). I don't know enough about Windows programming or subsystems to pin it down.

Small consolation, but at least you have a keyboard with a Windows key

I've seen this too (usually just once per login)...

For non-windowed keyboards, use the Ctrl Esc keyboard salute.

...or you can Alt-Tab if you want to get to an open app
