A couple of thoughts...

Since this is a PM app, start if from an Object a use the "bad name" trick
in the Program Name field to get access to the start minimized checkbox.
This works for many, but not all, apps.

This is normal behavior, TTBOMK. Apps started by PM or CMD.EXE methods
know nothing about the Minimized Window folder. Only apps started via the
WPS can be minimized to the folder because is action handled by by the
WPS.
