Windows 98

Commands

Introduction

All application windows in Windows 98 share common commands. For example, the upper right corner of each window will feature three command buttons: minimize, maximize (or restore), and close.

Close

Maximize

Minimize

Minimize

An application window can be minimized, removed from the visible screen without closing or exiting the program. When an application's window is minimized, the applica- tion program continues to run; however, it is not visible on the screen.

Minimizing some programs can improve overall system efficiency. For example, an Internet FTP (File Transfer Program) application may be downloading a file from a remote Internet site.
