I suspect that Polywindows and WP both use the Ctrl-Return and the existance of the resident command from Polywindows interferes with the WP command. When PW was removed from memory (I don't see how it could matter whether it is on the disk or not), it could no longer interfere. Perhaps you can change Ctrl-Return to something else in one of the programs by re-programming the keys. But be careful not to overlap still another command. WP uses so many functions, that it may be hard to find something that is not already in use.
