Hi AzDude,

I downloaded purge.zip, ran the .bat file, rebooted, re-installed and still the same issue. What else could we try? 

Thanks!

Hello,

Sorry to hear you are having trouble.

Unless I am missing something you are doing, on both the general release of Win10, and the fastring, I am not seeing any grouping issues or tabbing with WinKey + ~ :

Saved groups with Chrome is always tricky as you need to ensure that all instances of Chrome are closed before you open a saved group with Chrome Windows Included:

Thanks, Sean. 

It looks like the video shows normal Windows apps and not Chrome running in app mode, no?

Also, what does the WinKey + ~ do? Is that a shortcut to make Chrome in app mode group?

Done with this method:

WinKey + ~ will cycle through grouped apps in Groupy

Thanks, sdRohan. Could you tell me the Chrome version you're using?

Hi sdRohan,

I was able to create a group using the method described above. The method I was using before was to do the following:

1. Create a shortcut of Chrome somewhere on the system
2. Open its property menu
3. Click on the "Shortcut" tab and enter the following in the "Target" field:
   1. "C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome Beta\Application\chrome.exe" --app=https://www.youtube.com/feed/subscriptions
4. Click save

Here's the screenshot: https://cloudup.com/cUElFEIoW-V

Could you test if the method I described works for you?

Thanks!

Thanks again.

Is there a way to have the saved group working when following the method you've posted above:

Just tried it and does not work.

Thanks!
