I'm using FM9 so this may not apply, but I had to reinstall earlier this summer
and for whatever reason, I lost access to the character palette utility.
Some bright soul on the list suggested I update Java as this item is Java based.
I updated and it magically reappeared!

For me, it loads with FrameMaker.exe.
Have you tried clicking Show processes from all users in Task

Good point, Stuart.
This is a new computer for me (new job! yay!), and I haven't needed to

Hi Tim,
FrameMaker 10 still has the character palette (File Utilities Character
Palette), but the FrameMaker 9 (and above) window tends to steal the focus
