    Hello all,
    I am using a different windows shell under windows 7 (for an arcade machine) so Afterburner doesn't load automatically on startup because windows shell does not start at all. When I use a batch file to start the program it starts maximized. In the docs i found the following:

    Added command line switches for forcing MSI Afterburner to be minimized to the system tray area on startup or during runtime and for opening desired advanced MSI Afterburner properties tab.

    But it doesn't mention what is that command line switch. I can't find it elsewhere. Anyone knows if that can be done?

    Thank you in advance.

    -m minimizes it to system tray, -propertypage<N> activates desired properties tab by specified zero-based index

    Many thanks! Is there a full list of command line options?

    It is power user oriented and not documented on purpose and I mentioned it a few times.
