So you have a text file open with Notepad? And the file is 'aaa.txt' and
you want Notepad to be active (have the focus)?
If so, try this:
<code>
from ctypes import windll
user32 = windll.user32
SW_RESTORE = 9
hwnd = user32.FindWindowA(None, 'aaa.txt - Notepad')
if hwnd:
user32.ShowWindow(hwnd, SW_RESTORE)
user32.SetForegroundWindow(hwnd)
</code>
