Why do some programs only start in the background?

I have (not the first time) the problem that some of my programs (eg Wargaming Center, Teamspeak3) do not start normally, but are considered a background process. That is, if I want to start TS3, only one of an infinite number of background processes will appear. At the Wargaming Center, the same thing happens, except that the "error monitor" is added. That's why I feel like my drivers are outdated or my chipset driver is not installed. But that is not the case. All drivers are installed and updated.

Previously, I was able to solve the problem by resetting my old laptop and reinstalling everything. But I think it's understandable that I do not always want to reset my "new" (potato) PC just because two programs do not start properly.

Everything has always worked out (even on the laptop). But with both devices the same happened from one day to the next. Wargaming games started normally, but did not update. (That is, after about 2-5 days, the games have not been able to start because of the frequent updates, since updates can only be done through this Wargaming Center.) So I can start the games of Wargaming normally, but I'm stuck, than to log in, otherwise the launcher automatically tries to start, but of course it lands in the background.

With TS3 I can't open at all.

(to reduce annoying questions): I have already reinstalled the programs several times, the file paths cleaned up to the last and, of course, downloaded from the original websites, the programs.

Hope that is enough information to describe my problem and I hope one of you out there knows the solution.

Uje, your cards are bad.

The programs themselves do that. The programmer can write commands like "send to back" to bring windows into the foreground. He can instruct the operating system to open a window so that it shifts to the foreground ("modal window"). Then the thing simply pops up and bothers.

Or he can shrink a program immediately after starting in the task bar.

All these things he can still tie to Bedingugen. So, for example "if the free memory is only 20%, then go to sleep".

I'm afraid you have to contact the manufacturer. Simply avoid badly programmed software.

First of all: sorry, I had clicked on "helpful"… P:

The interesting thing is that as always worked out in the beginning. On laptop or this PC here. But from one moment to the other the programs did not start anymore. The chipsets are actually sufficient and it had worked before that too. I'll just have to wait for the new PC…
