The collective term for minimize, maximize, and close buttons is "window control buttons" or "window management buttons." These buttons are typically found in the title bar of application windows and serve to manage the window's state on a user's desktop.
The general name for the minimize, maximize, and close buttons on the top right corner of a computer window is "window control buttons." These buttons allow users to manage the state of the application window, such as reducing it to the taskbar, enlarging it to fill the screen, or closing it entirely.
The minimize button reduces a window to an icon. Clicking the icon restores it. The maximize button increases the size of a window to fill the whole screen or (if an MDI (Multiple Document Interface) window, to fill the parent window's client area). Clicking it again restores the window. The close button closes the window and initiates the document close sequence.
Typically (at least in Windows OS), that will at least consist of the Title Bar and (in most cases) the icons to Minimize, Maximize, Restore and/or Close the window.

The control button commonly found on most desktop windows and dialog boxes is the "Close" button, typically represented by an "X" in the upper right corner. This button allows users to close the window or dialog box. Additionally, there are often "Minimize" and "Maximize" buttons adjacent to the Close button, used to minimize the window to the taskbar or expand it to full screen, respectively.
In Windows 7, the control buttons on the title bar are located on the right side. These buttons include the Minimize button (a dash), the Maximize/Restore button (a square), and the Close button (an 'X'). They allow users to manage the window's size and visibility efficiently. The title bar itself also displays the name of the application or document currently in use.
