Random Switching of Desktops on Windows 10

Postby RayNA » 28.12.2016 22:10:31

Dexpot sometimes starts switching desktops and keeps switching them until I click on one of the desktops. I noticed this happens when I have the Desktop Manager is visible on the screen. When this problem happens i can no longer click on desktop icons displayed by the Desktop Manager (but can still switch desktops using the keyboard shortcuts), and Windows 10 Start Menu no longer opens when i click on the Window icon on the taskbar.

Above problem happens frequently enough to be quite annoying. It seems that it doesn't happen when the Desktop Manager is off.
Attached is the Dexpot log file.

By the way, I must add that i love Dexpot, it is by far the most feature rich and flexible Virtual Desktop software available for Windows. I especially like the ability to have different icons and items on different desktops. Way better than Windows 10's own implementation of Virtual Desktops. :ok:

Update: After using Dexpot a bit longer, I can say that above problem (switching desktops randomly) does also occur when Desktop Manager is OFF. So the problem may not be related to Desktop Manager after all.

Desktop switching to the last one

I have 5 desktops defined with Dexpot. If I am working on Desktop 1, and I open a window either from the Start Menu or the taskbar, the desktop always switches to Desktop 5 after I close all active windows on Desktop 1. However If i open my windows from Desktop 1 icons/shortcuts, this problem does not happen.
