Can I remove Groupy2 from Chrome?

April 13, 2024 8:40:36 AM from Stardock ForumsStardock Forums

I just paid to upgrade to Groupy2. I'm on Win10 running Chrome browser. I get a fast glitch which looks like Groupy is trying to add itself above my tabs in Chrome. I looked for a 'don't use Groupy on..' button but don't see one. How do I NOT use Groupy2 on Chrome?

Hello,
Sorry to hear you are having issues. Have you tried adding Chrome to Block application list? Refer screenshot below.

Thanks

I found a setting that switches off Groupy appearing on top of ungrouped windows so I used that. 

I can't do the 'Block' thing you said because I'm on Win10 and although I use Chrome for the internet I can't find where it is installed.

I am on Windows 10 and my chrome.exe is located here: C:\Program Files\Google\Chrome\Application

Hallo,

 to be honest, in my case the block list doesn´t work. Only the allow list and thats a lot of work to set all my programs inside there.

Any known bug?

Thanks in advance!

I'm a bit confused. I have Windows 10 Pro and the most recent Chrome. My installation of Groupy2, the original Groupy2 v2.00 was flawless. How flawless? I would not start my computer without my big buddy Groupy2.

I should also mention I did an upgrade from Groupy1.

Hello,
Sorry to hear you are having issues. What application that you trying to block, but don't work? I tried Firefox and Chrome and it work without issue. Just make sure you're set the correct .exe file.

Thanks

Hallo,

easy to explain.

The block list doesn´t work at all. The applications in the list still shows the groupy tap at the top edge of the window.

The allow list works fine. All applications in the list group, but the apps in the list. And they also don´t show the groupy tab at the top edge.

But that can be the solution if you have a ton of tools and programs.

Thanks

Yes, I understand, to block a few are easier than to allow lots of application. That is why I am asking which software that when you tried to block Groupy from it but don't work. As you can see on my list above. I blocked, Firefox and Chrome, from getting that Groupy tabs. And it work on my system. I am trying to find out why it don't work on your system.

Thank you,

I couldnt understand so I just blocked everything except Explorer. Sadly it cant even manage that properly because the other User account on my PC is forced to use it too. Looking for something better now.

See this post for info on turning off Groupy2 for a User Account.
