Can't Bring Windows to the Front

from Stardock Forums

I'm not exactly sure how to explain this - but it's a new issue since I started using Groupy.  I have dual monitors with a lot of things open and I've been using Groupy for about two weeks - which has worked well for the most part.  About 3 days ago I started having problems when I needed switched to a different window - normally you click the program/window and it brings it to the front/makes it active - so you can compose an email, add something to Excel - whatever. 

All of the sudden this is not working - I have to click the last window and the one I want to switch too several times to access the one I want.  In many cases that doesn't even work - whatever window I need stays behind everything else (or minimized) .... you can work in that screen - but you can't see it - so its not usable.   This has killed productivity.  If I turn off Groupy - everything works fine.

I've checked under settings and I don't see anything that I can change.  I've made no changes to the program at all - I'm just using the default settings.

Thank you!

Hello,

Yes; I also use Display Fusion & Fences - I've been using both for years so it's not a new install.  I purchased the bundle when I upgraded to Windows 10 because I wanted the decent start menu and I just decided to try Groupy about 2 weeks ago.

Groupy 1.43

I turned Groupy off and it helped a good bit - but didn't completely fix the issue; guessing I need to reboot.

Thank you!
