Moving app windows to another desktop still does not work in Windows 11

Moving app windows to another desktop still does not work in Windows 11, instead the relevant desktop will be opened (no windows are moved).

What actually causes this problem, wish I knew autohotkey better, I could have fixed it then.

I just updated windows 11 and I noticed right away that moving app window to another desktop doesn't work. Thank you for linking this fix.

This solution might not feel smooth though. Like there's a delay between pressing a shortcut then switching the desktop.

Yup I've noticed that, especially when using different wallpaper per desktop. The taskbar tend to have a delay sometimes when switching rapidly.

Hopefully this gets fixed, because this script is essential for my productivity.

By the way, do you have any recommendation for "never combine taskbar tweak", here in windows 11?

Same problem here, it is so annoying! 😭

For all those having issues with this., this dll works even on 22H2 for me.
