Not grouping - Win 10 Pro

I purchased Groupy v1.25 and installed it on the latest version of Win10 Pro, v1909.

Explorer windows group fine.

But dragging application windows one to another does not group them. Even when manually adding them together (right-click\add-to-group) and saving the group, trying to open the saved group gives an error:

Hello,
Sorry to hear you are having issues. Please try purge and reinstall steps : https://forums.stardock.com/488142/groupy-support-faq#reinstalling

Just make sure to re-download the latest version from your account, reboot after the purge, reinstall and reboot again. Retest and report back here.

Thanks

Now word and Excel group fine.

But I can't drag Notepad or Notepad++ into any group.

In a new admin account, at first, it didn't work. After I changed the settings to "group immediately", that worked. Then, when putting back to wait 1/3 sec, it also worked fine.

Went back to my account. Changed settings to "Group immediately". That worked but with a small issue. The txt file grouped, but while dragging, it didn't show a preview of the "snap", like it should before you release the mouse from dragging. But when I just released the mouse anyway, it grouped.

I then put back the setting to 1/3 sec, and text files won't group at all.

 

So to summarize:

I don't mind leaving on the setting to group immediately.

So the only issue remaining is that while dragging a txt file (word and excel are fine), there is no indication that the snap is about to happen.

It's also something I can live with but if you have a solution, that would be great.

Thank you.

Another update:

Also when choosing to hold CTRL for dragging to snap, it groups ok (without a preview :(

So what I need is for it to work (showing preview) without CTRL, and when using a delay.
