Could you please add your soldat.ini?
I think this has to do with the stretching and showing above taskbar feature.
Do you use that?

If you are playing Soldat on screen resolution same as yours monitor resolution - I think I discovered a temporary fix for this.
Just untick "Fullscreen" in config.exe and set monitor's resolution. Soldat won't minimize, but at least you will be able to do something you have to do without closing game (Soldat will stay in background).

I really need your config (soldat.ini where the bug happened) to see if I fixed it.

Cannot reproduce the bug with your soldat.ini.
Might have something to do with cpu load spikes when switching from fullscreen to windows and back.
But hardly fixable when I can't reproduce it.

Can you tell me how you get soldat hanging (exactly)?
Is it Ingame or while you are in the GUI (or both?).
You switch to special programs? Anything else is running in the background?

Okay, I think I managed to find out the reason.

When you switch to an other application, DirectInput is disabled; when switching back, you have to click to initialize it again. Try to switch back into soldat and before you re-initialize it Alt+Tab.

However, the tick for fullscreen worked as a temporarily solution - thanks.

When directinput isn't initialized Soldat doesn't minimize to tray after alt+tab
