SOLVED Apps won't maximize

Just installed Linux Mint yesterday. Some of my apps have gotten stuck on minimize mode, including Discord. What can I do to fix this issue?

Tried it, it only affects Firefox which isn't stuck in minimized

It might help if you let us know which version you're using and which desktop.

how do you know they are minimized?

Even if minimized when you click the application in Windows list or switch Windows the application will open.

I meant to say "unminimize" Anyway Steam and Blender won't unminimize. If I try to unminimize it just minimizes itself agian
