This is what happens to me as well. Very occasionally, VS will get into a state where it won't minimize unless I hit the "show desktop" button, and then it won't come back unless I use "Switch To" in task manager. Other than that it continues to function, so sometimes I probably don't even notice. When it's in this state, the X in the upper-right won't close the program, but File...Exit will. Closing it and opening it back up always fixes the problem.
