def001.hst Missing Window

[Stefan]

When I open up Hoster 3. something. (I am not infront of the machine at the moment) The show display or singers display is OK on monitor 2, but no main window up. I can still see the tab at the bottom of the screen with def001.hst and click on it to bring it to the front but it wont come up. it's like it's hiding behind the desktop. I had to cancel a gig because I couldn't work it out. I couldn't re-install because I was not online. If this happens again I could loose my gig. Any clues?

I'm not sure what you are saying but you might start by restoring the computer to a time when Hoster was working OK for you.

I believe you can click on the tab and drag it up to fill your screen if i understand your problem as stated.

If you could save a screen shot and post it here that would make it easier to see exactly what you are talking about.

Try right-clicking the tab and maximize.
