Reset needed every screen wakeup

Open Dubardo opened this issue 11 months ago • 11 comments

I didn't find this issue but every time my screen turn off, I need to reset File explorer to make it work properly.

I have a 3 screen setup, 2x 1200p and 1x ultrawide 1440p. My bar is on the left screen, right vertically and when I wakeup the screen, if I fullscreen a window, it will go over the bar. The start menu will popoff the middle screen as would the default placement. Also my ultrawide middle screen seems to be cut in half about 1/10 at the top.

I will try to provide video next time it happens.

Please post windows version and build. You can find this by running winver. Please post explorer patcher version.

Please include what settings you changed in explorer patcher properties application. These should be screen shots.

Please include any other software you have installed that modifies the UI of windows.

Try uninstalling the preview update you got installed: https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/insider/forum/all/build-226213227-and-226313227-live-in-rpc/7eb26fb6-64f8-491f-8599-4e969655f800

Killing Powertoys seems to have fixed it. I only use it for Fancy Zone so that might be it.

So if uninstalling powertoys fixes it, please close this.

I re-installed the Microsoft store version of Powertoys and it seems to be ok now!

So it sounds like you just needed to update powertoys.

Nope, it didn't work. Still got the issue with updated version. Guess ill have to learn without the fancy zones!

It still does it without Fancytoys and Display fusion:

For the reset screen problem, uninstall EP, reboot, and see if it is still happening.

I'm also having this issue whenever I change display settings. No Powertoys or Fancytoys installed. Fullscreen applications (like Firefox) will be displayed over the taskbar. Need to restart explorer everytime to fix.
