It's not bug 
ICE ECC is not pure command line utility. ICE ECC is normal Windows GUI application witch has full command line support. This is good solution, because:
1. Usual command line utilities can rus multiple instances simultaniously. This is bad for program like ICE ECC. ICE ECC require a lot of CPU and RAM. For such heavy application only single process has to be allowed.
2. ICE ECC has unique feature - queues. Queues working even from command line. So, opening graphical interface is not bad for what.
3. If you do not like to see opened graphical interface after finishing all tasks, you can add command "ICEECC.EXE exit" at the end of queue. |

Is there a way to force ICE ECC start minimized and (yet more important) without grabbing focus when starting it from the command line interface?
I have tried various ways to start ICE ECC from an AutoHotKey script and everything is ok - BUT... I have not found a way to stop ICE ECC stealing focus.
This is a critical problem for me since the workstation is used for text processing etc and ICE ECC should start working at the background without interupting the end user. The text processing does not tolerate losing the focus even for a short moment.
Any ideas, please...? |

ICE ECC force focus grabbing. It's easy to disable it. Only new version can fix your problem. |

Thank you again for your quick reply. I'll keep an eye on the forum and look forward to see an announcement for the new version.
Many thanks in advance. This is a great tool! |

Until the summer will not be. About later dates is difficult to say. |

Uhh... that's no good news. I'm afraid I'll have no other option then but switch to par2cmdline... 
I'd rather not do it but I must be able to generate the checksum files in the backgrund without grabbing control in the user interface. Is there any possibility that you could reconsider your schedules of publishing a new version having the option to disable focus grabbing? |

It's simple. ICE ECC is freeware. It's not first priority project. When will I get free time, then you will have a new version. |
