Hello Ath nice to listen !

maximize the window of a resident program from the tray icon , saturdays, tuesdays and thursdays at 14.30 hours.

the program is ProgressBarsOfLife.exe

I was thinking about using the task Programmation (Programador de tareas de windows en espaƱol) . I don't know how to do this.

Note : after a time of inactivity ? --- change to those days at 14.30 hours.
My dear Ath where can I find a simple tutorial about the concept of windows inactivity ?

I launch everyday ProgressBarOfLife, but sometimes I forget to execute, because are target flexible, after the due time I have a month.

First results by my own means.

Maximize creating a shortcut of pbol don't works for me.

I am trying the command

O:\Mis documentos en O\SOFTWARE GESTION\ProgressBarsOfLifePortableACER\ProgressBarsOfLife.exe  /i cmd /k mode con cols=30 lines=40

PBOL don't obey the command, but at least I obtain a super maximized window

In a batch script i don't obtain good results until moment.

Well, why not ask in a proper category if someone, maybe I, can program something for you?

It's difficult with a batch command that program to maximize when resident in the tray icon !

Usually, to maximize a program from the system tray, is a feature of the program itself, not by blasting a command at it and expecting it to do as you desire.
If PBOL doesn't support that, it won't work (period).

Is a matter of opinion.
The program support the maximum I need and this is enough for me.
