Clicking on the minimized application button does nothing. Right-clicking and choosing Maximize does nothing. I tried setting the applications' properties to open maximized, but that doesn't work, either. Thanks.

It sounds almost as if it's displaying the Window on a monitor that you cannot see (you can check in the Advanced tab of the Display properties).
