I've had this before. No idea why it happens. If you shift + right click the icon in the windows bar you should be able to choose maximize and get the window back to full size.

Steam AND Razor? As far as I know, no. They're mutually exclusive.

you can use uosteam and easyuo or razor and easyuo, but not razor, uosteam and easuo all at once. you can still have them setup and just run either or if your gonna be doing some razor scripts.

I use Razor and Easyuo, between the two it covers all the functionality that I need. There are so many scripts out there for Easyuo that you can probably find whatever you are looking for on this forum or the Easyuo one. I don't really know much about steam though.

What kind of things are you looking for?

A looter that doesn't crash and doesn't try to pick up anything that is not nailed down. Preferably one that lets you get only the items you want. But that sounds a bit like Moby Dick. See my Easy U O Looter thread for more "drama" on this issue. :lol:

This is the solution that I usually recommend - mouseover the "Ultima online" in your taskbar -> a small preview window shows up -> right click on the window -> select "Maximize" or "Restore" from the context menu, and it restores the window so you can see it again.

I think this happens because you close the game (or client crashes) while the game is minimized, and when you open it again, it restores the window position to somewhere offscreen.

One thing that used to happen was that the game would open off screen, and you'd have to use the manual move window option to get it back.

Hasn't happened to me in a bunch of years though.
