On Windows Vista, I'm launching files associated with a Google Chrome "Application Shortcut" app by double-clicking them. While they will always open this way, they will sometimes not receive focus -- i.e. they sit in the task bar quietly but don't actually show in front on the screen (until I click on the app in the task bar again).
Does anyone know how I can force the just-opened app to receive focus?
The app being opened actually contains a web app I can customize, so I also have access to performing JavaScript commands post-startup. For background information, here is the regedit file I originally used to create the file association. Might well be this is a Google Chrome internal issue... apps I open with other editors get their focus alright, AFAIK. Thanks!

Thanks. Would I still be able to call Google Chrome with several parameters, which is needed? (As shown in the linked reg file) – Philipp Lenssen – 2009-10-11T09:46:44.590
As long as you specify part of the window title yes – John T – 2009-10-11T14:22:25.517
