Bug in vSphere client on Windows 7

I'm using the vSphere client 4.1.0  build 258902 on Windows 7, and there is a VERY annoying bug where if  you minimized an open console, it becomes impossible to un-minimize the  window.  I have to close the console window from the taskbar and re-open  it using the client.

Does  anyone know if this is a known issue or if there is a work around for  it?  I googled it and searched the community here but didn't find  anything about it.

It's working for me.  Win7Pro, vSphere client build 258902.

Have you installed SP1 for Win7?  I have not yet but I've seen a couple of threads about people having issues installing Win7SP1 into new virtual machines.  Probably completely unrelated, but I haven't had any problem with unminimizing windows on any of my Win7 machine for any app so I'm just wondering what's different about your machine compared to mine.

Same problem in ESXi4.1 and ESXi5 with Windows Host Consoles on two Windows 7 systems running vSphere clients.

Any solutions?
