System Information
Operating system: Windows 10
Graphics card: NVidia Quadro P5000

Blender Version
I tried multiple versions

Short description of error
Blender stays minimized after launching it. I've tried all possible available options to maximize the window.
Is it a known issue? Is there some fast solution to resolve it?
I've tried reinstalling Blender, installing different versions, switching users, leveraging Task Manager, everything I could think of. Please help, because all my workflow is stuck now.

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
There was nothing special done that caused it, so I don't know how to reproduce it.

Hi @Victor-66,

This is not a known issue, and it's unusual for Blender to behave this way. There are a few things you can try:

  1. Press Alt + Space and then press the "Maximize" option to see if that brings the Blender window back to its normal size.
  2. Check if there are any conflicting programs running in the background that might be affecting Blender's behavior.
  3. Make sure that your graphics card drivers are up to date. You can visit the NVIDIA website to download the latest drivers for your NVidia Quadro P5000.

If none of the above solutions work, could you please provide more information about your system configuration and any other relevant details? Try opening Blender's installation directory and double clicking on the blender_debug_gpu.cmd. This will start Blender in debug mode and create log files.
Once you close Blender manually the Windows Explorer should open and show you up to two files, a debug log and the system information.
Add them to your bug report by clicking on the upload button below or via drag and drop.
This will help us investigate the issue further.
