    My initial screen suddenly doesn't appear

    Yesterday my application worked fine. Today, when I try to start it (from the Visual Studio) with the F5 key, the icon appears in the taskbar (Windows 7) but nothing on the screen. Clicking on this icon does nothing. Right-clicking gives only the option to close the window or pin it to the taskbar. If I change mode from "Debug" to "Release" then all is well and I get my initial opening screen. I changed nothing between yesterday and today, so what is going on here?

    So let's see. You have all the project files, both the debug and release folders, and all the necessary knowledge of what's on your screen, how your system works and so on. We have absolutely nothing. Please explain how you think we might be in a better position to explain what's going on than you.

    Well, I hardly know where to begin. The code is in probably 50 or 60 different files, much too large to upload here. I guess I'm looking for ideas as to what might cause this sudden change of behavior, and why it works in release mode but not debug mode. Especially since I changed nothing in the code since yesterday.
