Winver.exe is a Microsoft software that come with Windows. Just type Windows key + Winver and press enter. That should run Winver.exe.

and I still need to know this.

I notice you mentioned, Stardock's Fences, right? What version of Fences you're on? Is the issue do not happen when you disable Fences? And also, I still need what version of Windows version you're on? As I mentioned on my first reply you can get that information using Winver.exe, which is a program that come along when you install Windows.

These questions, I asked you, so I can help you. And I can give you pointers on how to solve it. But if you can't give me these answers, than I can not help you.

Thank you,

Is the issue only happen while you're playing a video and you press Windows key + D. Only while playing video on VLC? Sorry I need more details since I can not reproduce it on my system.

This is happening if I WIN D from any applicatkon. Example a maximized win explorer.

Or any app that iss full screen, alt+tab works fine. But When I do Win +D to go to desktop it is black.

Not for me, I can't reproduce it on my system. BTW, do you see the issue if you use Win + M keys (minimize-all)

Try that and report back.
