Windows randomly change Desktops

Postby instinctive » 17.10.2016 13:11:59

Hello,

while this is a great piece of software, I'm having lots of problems with applications just randomly switching Desktops, or even appearing on multiple desktops at once.

I'm on Windows 7 64 bit. It happens with Google Hangouts (running as Chrome App, not in a browser window), it happens with Xara Designer Pro, everything... windows just keep moving / being copied between desktops even though I never switch them manually, neither with the right-click menu nor by dragging, then switching, then dropping.

Any way I can prevent this? Is this a known issue?

Just wanna jump in - I am a long term user of this software and this is happening to me too. I tried to communicate this issue multiple times to dexpot but unfortunately nothing helped. If you could please provide them with log file where you could reproduce it, maybe they can fix it. It is very hard for me to provide logs without providing confidential information IN the logs, which is halting the progress on resolving this. You can see people discussing this issue here viewtopic.php?f=12&t=4362&p=37473#p37473 and also here is mine viewtopic.php?f=12&t=5916&e=1&view=unread#unread

No, not really. The behaviour the user is talking about perfectly matches my own problem. Anyway, what I noticed is, that this happens solely when I use full preview (all desktops at once). At that moment things randomly copy to other desktops. But it is intermittent - does not happen all the time and usually when a lot of windows are open.
