Ive been using Start 10 with Win 10x64 pro just fine for years. However Im now experiencing what is best described as blurred desktop rectangle where start 10 menu displays after the menu closes. The menu itself is not corrupted and appears to work fine. Start Menu and Win 10 are both set to auto update and are on latest version & patches. Of note is the fact that issuing "start10 unload" immediately fixes the issue. Otherwise there is no way to clear the corruption withou

I found the issue and solution. I am running a tool called actual multiple monitor. I use it to have windows open applications to which ever monitor I want and to one-click snap any window to to the other screen. Apparently it some how interferes with multiplicity. I simply created an exception rule for the multiplicity window class and the issue cleared up. Thanks for all your help.

I rewatched the video. I dont think you were doing the same steps as I was (also it appears your primary is a mac - couldnt quite tell but this wouldnt be the same) I saw you press the maximize button in the top right corner and flip on/off 1:1 mode several times. But that isnt the use case for me I only get the issue when I click the minimize button (looks like "_"). This gets be back to the primary's win 10 desktop. From what I could see, this wasnt tested.

Im sorry but I couldnt quite understand your video. Ill watch it again. Your idea that something else might be interferring is intriguing. I am going to try several items. 1) Safe mode with networking (hoping the primary's multiplicity service starts) 2) Using MSCONFIG to disable all startup items and services If it works, Ill keep adding items back til it breaks and report back

If I click on the dropped down part of the title bar, it collapses (rolls up) and then it works properly until the next time when i view anything on the primary. I would be happy to test any config changes or beta code. This bug isnt a P0 or P1 but the way I use multiplicity, its annoying as this occurs 20+ times a day.

I have uploaded a screen capture. The first part shows the title bar working as expected. After opening, it auto-closed after 3 seconds each time. Then I switch to my empty desktop on the primary. When I switch back, you will see the title bar stuck maximized. It wont autoclose. Please let me know if it is still confusing. https://www.dropbox.com/s/sa4ricq0n9n536f/kvm.mp4?dl=0 Thanks!

Hi, Would appreciate any advice on how to properly configure multiplicity to eliminate this or confirm it as bug. I am running M in kvm mode only. This behavior occurs when viewing any secondary. However, it takes a specific set of steps to duplicate every time. Steps to Repro: 1) Connect to any secondary. 2) You will notice that top menu bar is maximized for a few seconds then it auto minimizes. (As expected) 3) Click Minimize ("_" char

Im running fences on 2 pcs and they are exhibiting different behaviors. The issue I have is that I have 5 fences on the desktop with no labels and the setting "never show label" You can see the icon has the fences logo. I must have a setting wrong, but i cant quite figure it out. Any ideas? In the start menu, I see 5 folders all with the name "Enter Title<img src="https://cdn.stardock.us/forums/50/8/5008942/0b981ba6-26cb-4dcd-92ae-d9d619cbca22.jpg" alt=

I am not referring to the idea that the icon name splits to a new line. Im saying fences can create widths where the icon text is actually missing. Is there anyway to prevent this? Is this a known issue?

Hi, Every once in a while, I move a fence and align it to the edge of the desktop. After that it may randomly move the title bar off the desktop and I dont know how to reposition back to normal or understand why this happens? Any ideas?

Hi, I did see the autoresponder. I didnt interpret it as the vendor would be responding in the forums. I thought it would be volunteers, thus I said there appears to be no way to reach the vendor. Either way, since you are using the forums, everything is fine. i am in kvm mode running 3.37 on both machines on hardwired 1gb ethernet. However, for the past 2 days it has been working perfectly (without any firewall changes) The only thing i did do was wander throu

It is a fine KB article and Im confident it does help the vast majority of issues. It just doesnt even mention the possibility of anything else or what to do to seek further help. I went to stardock's site and there is no chat support, no phone support, and even no email. In the past, when I have reached out to communities, 90% of my questions never get a reply and there is nothing I can do to seek vendor assistance. If your policy is for customers to seek help on the

Running Win10 x64 20H2 with all updates on primary and secondary. Secondary has firewall disabled for all profiles, no 3rd party AV. This connection worked for 2 years without any changes (except windows patching and Multiplicity updates) For the past couple of months, there is nothing I can do to reliably obtain desktop interaction. Usually I can see the desktop and move the mouse, but the keyboard and mouse clicks arent working Pressing the CTL-ALT-DE

Same thing i was thinking. However I had not manually changed anything. I disabled Norton firewall and verified secondary fw was disabled. I then started turning off the features inside MalwareBytes. They turned off one-by-one just fine until I tried to disable malware protection. Then the entire app hanged. I rebooted and disabled MB and everything worked. So I reenabled MB features one-by-one until all of them were on. And things still worked. This is strange because

Hi, I am running 3.55 on one primary and one secondary (both running x64 Win 10 Pro). It has been functioning fine for years. Without any reason that I can detect, no control is possible on the secondary. The mouse moves but buttons dont work, kbd doesnt work, pressing ctl-alt-delete on title bar doesnt work. My lan is configured as private. I have completely disabled windows firewall and I dont have any av on it. I have no idea how to proceed be

I have certain icons (not all) that seem to randomly, occasionally, swap positions. Putting them back into the correct order is very hard because when the icon is dropped, Fences ignores where I drop it, and puts it somewhere else in the same fence. Eventually I get it correctly located and 1-4 weeks later, the icons are swapped. Is there anyway to LOCK fences settings. That is, all fence sizes, locations, icon positions, etc. are LOCKED and cant be changed?

I have experienced issues over multiple versions of Fences where randomly the width of 1 or more fences becomes narrower. This causes either the left or the right side of the icons to be hidden. I then drag the fence width wider and voila. Working again for a while. Then a few reboots later and a different fence experiences the issue. Currently Im on the latest beta build (cuz Im also experiencing the special level of hell that is the 4+ second launch lag)

Hi, Ive been suffering with 4-10 second delays launching apps from the desktop for a year going back several version of Fences. I just now realized Fences was the source of the problem. I am currently running the latest beta drop but it hasnt helped at all. I havent read the 6+ pages of this thread. Can someone tell me is there any workaround at all for this? I dont really care if it requires a registry hack or anything. I would just LOVE to get past this suffering. I
