Hey so I am having trouble getting the program to work. It has been working fine for me for almost a year now but all of a sudden the screen that displays the servers and channels that I am connected to and where I can actually use KVIrc for chatting does not pop up. It is weird because the program is running in my Task Manager and is running in the bottom right side of the bottom bar on my screen. I can still connect to servers through that button and the servers tab but I cant see anything due to nothing popping up.

Could really use some help. I've tried reinstalling but to no avail. Thanks

I'm not quite sure whether I had similar problem with KVirc or not, but!..
Main program window suddenly jumped to screen coordinates (-32000;-32000) and I managed to return it to (0;0) via Total Commander's built in plugin (accessible via Network button) - Task Manager - there I found kvirc.exe and edited the coordinates of it's window.

Another solution is to delete all kvirc files - apart from uninstalling. And reboot before installing. He-he. That could work too)

Ah! Seems like I've found the setting in KVirc files that tells KVirc where to position main window!

Close your Kvirc, go to your Settings\config\ directory and open main.kvc in a text editor.
(If you don't know where exactly your local KVirc settings folder is, run in KVirc /echo $file.localdir)
Find the line like this one (search rectFrameGeometry keyword):
Code:
rectFrameGeometry=10,99,498,286
it is in the format X, Y, Width, Height (coordinates start in the Upper-Left corner of a screen)
And see if it has reasonable values. If not, edit them accordingly, save. Open KVirc!

which version of KVIrc do you use?


Another problem could be that you start minimized and minimize to tray icon. Do you see your KVIrc Icon in the tray bar?

Hmm well I figured it out. It only works when it is maximized. I can open it from the tray bar and it opens on the Start bar but I can't see the screen so I just right click it and maximize it. Any way to fix this? I tried moving it and changing the size but it just moves my cursor to the top left and when I click it doesnt change anything...

You have tried changing geometry by editing rectFrameGeometry? Or right-click on Kvirc in Task bar - Move (or Resize)?
