Im trying to activate a window after closing it(to tray) ..what else can I try than this:

DetectHiddenWindows, On
WinActivate, IK Control Panel ahk_class IK_MULTIVIEW_WINDOW

Its a program on my USB-Stick, the only way Ive found to bring up to control panel again is to click tray icon. Using the exe that is first used when login doesnt work when already logged in. And I need a simple and effective way that will work in a script. Can I use the processname to "bring to front" somehow?

I thought something was wrong because the only option from the taskbarbutton that came up was to close it and clicking it didnt bring up the window, however using the WinShow command twice brought up the window ..lol, dont understand why it is needed but it works.

The trayicon script by Sean on this forum could have solved the problem I think but the program doesnt show when listing trayicons with the script..
