Hello, I had this problem, I started dwarfort.exe and appears it isn't opened, but the process was running.

I solve this problem by creating a .bat, simply do this:
Create a file named dwarfort.bat and edit it
Put this in the file: dwarfort.exe 1

Save the file, and now run dwarfort.bat... This makes the game open normally for me, I don't know why, it appears there must be a parameter to the .exe file

Lokis, what drove you to do this? Did someone suggest it, or did you simply think it might help? The reason I ask that is I'm not sure what you're causing, if this is indeed a DF command line parameter or if it's something in windows that you're triggering. Most importantly, the fact that it fixes your problem is interesting. Why'd you try it?
