    Hello,

    started a DriveCleanser task to wipe a drive clean and selected the option to hide the window. Now there doesn't seem to be any way to get the window back so I can see progress of the task. I can see the task is still active because the hard drive activity is still high.

    Thanks!

    P.S. This is for TIH 2009, latest build.

    Hi,
    You can do this by right-clicking on small ATI icon at Windows taskbar notification area and selecting "Status" in the menu.

    If the cleanser is still working, this icon must be present in the lower right corner of the Desktop (the right portion of the status bar with the clock)

    Well I have the drive still attached via USB and it's getting pretty warm from the continuing access.

    Process explorer shows the process C:\Program Files\Common Files\Acronis\TrueImageHome\TrueImageHomeService.exe active and it continues to amass I/O under the I/O "Other" counter (see attached image) so I am assuming it is continuing to do it's thing without the icon.

    Strange that the icon is missing though. I wonder if it will pop up a screen when it is done (it originally estimated 9hrs for a 750GB HD using the fast cleanse method)

    Hello paulgj,

    Thank you for using Acronis True Image

    Please try to restart Windows Explorer: Ctrl + Alt + Delete, Task manager -> Processes -> End Explorer.exe process. After that select File -> New task and launch Windows Explorer.

    Thank you.
