Script hangs if Photoshop CC minimized

Encoutered a strange issue that my script fails to terminate if I minimize Photoshop while script running. The script itself seems to do everything, but the dialog window frame stays on screen. I.e. even the dialog window content is cleared, but the title bar and window frame stays. My finalization for the dialog is just to call window.close(), anything else I should do? Also CS6 seems unaffected but both versions of CC are.

Anyone hit something like this, any ideas?

do you can show us your script?

How do you start your script if Photoshop is minimized? With double click in your explorer?

Perhaps the script works if Photoshop isn't minimized. And perhaps you could try something like this?

app.bringToFront();

Thanks, but what I meant was that I start script normally from panel and then minimize Photoshop so I can get back to browsing while script takes a few minutes to execute. So if I don't minimize and leave Photoshop as the open app, everything OK. If I minimize, dialog frame is left open.
