Unminimizes or unmaximizes the specified window if it is minimized or maximized.

WinRestore , WinTitle, WinText, ExcludeTitle, ExcludeText

Parameters

WinTitle

A window title or other criteria identifying the target window. See WinTitle.

WinText

If present, this parameter must be a substring from a single text element of the target window (as revealed by the included Window Spy utility). Hidden text elements are detected if DetectHiddenText is ON.

ExcludeTitle

Windows whose titles include this value will not be considered.

ExcludeText

Windows whose text include this value will not be considered.

Remarks

If a particular type of window does not respond correctly to WinRestore, try using the following instead:

PostMessage, 0x0112, 0xF120,,, WinTitle, WinText  ; 0x0112 = WM_SYSCOMMAND, 0xF120 = SC_RESTORE

This command operates only upon the topmost matching window except when WinTitle is ahk_group GroupName, in which case all windows in the group are affected.

Window titles and text are case sensitive. Hidden windows are not detected unless DetectHiddenWindows has been turned on.

WinMinimize, WinMaximize

Unminimizes or unmaximizes Notepad if it is minimized or maximized.
