Why Do You Want It?
I wrote the other day in Recover Hidden & Off-screen Windows with this Simple Tip and Freeware Program ForceWindowVisible –

- Corruption of Registry or “ini” file data
- Programming Errors

When this happens you need a simple and reliable method to get them back onto your screen.
Windows Seizer not only does this in a quick, easy and intuitive way, it also provides some very useful additional functions as detailed below.
