My Virtual PC console will not appear on the screen any longer. It appears
minimized in the tray in the bottom right hand corner but when I right click
it and select “show virtual PC console” it does not appear. I do see
“Virtual PC console” on my taskbar but I cannot see the console on my
screen. When I right click, both restore and maximize are greyed out.
Maybe the window is set to display itself out of the visible screen.
Take a look at the file:
C:\Documents and Settings\__Name_Of_Your_Windows_Account__\Application
Data\Microsoft\Virtual PC\Options.xml
and make sure that the values for the <console> section are reasonable.
For example:
<console>
<height type=”integer”>575</height>
<left_position type=”integer”>0</left_position>
<top_position type=”integer”>0</top_position>
<visible type=”boolean”>true</visible>
<width type=”integer”>359</width>
</console>
Don’t forget to backup this file first if you want to edit it.
