P3D vanishes to background

[Howie1]

When starting P3D v3 the sim vanishes to background after a minute.

Here is the log:

The focus has been moved to Explorer. If you aren't doing that you are running something else which is doing it. Maybe something starting by entries the EXE.XML or DLL.XML files, the the FSUIPC3 Documents add-ons files for P3D.

This is the wrong Forum for such queries. You should visit the P3D forums on AVSIM or Locheed Martin's own support forums.
