in your world of warcraft\wtf folder is a file named config.wtf
open it in any texteditor such as notepad or wordpad..

Find SET gxWindow "0" and change it to SET gxWindow "1"

if you also want it maximized (this will be on your primary monitor) find SET gxMaximize "0" and change that to SET gxMaximize "1"..

you should be good to go, if I recall correctly :)

I do not know if you can parse it in the startup as an argument :)

There was no such text as SET gxwindowed only...

SET gxColorBits "24"
SET gxDepthBits "24"
SET gxMultisample "1"
SET gxMultisampleQuality "0.000000"

Any other suggestions?

I got the same issue. Last night, I connected my computer to the TV.
But extended the desktop. And played WoW in windowed mode.

Now I can only play in windowed mode. If I'm not running it in windowed mode WoW minimizes it's self.
I tried adding a 2nd monitor to check if I gotta drag the window to my main screen. Didn't help.

Any suggestion how I can put the settings back to none windowed mode?
