Thanks for sending that over, I wonder if OpenShell is causing this. Can you close that out and see if the issue persists after a reboot?

I Disabled open-shell's start-up and rebooted, but the problem remained. This problem started after I updated to DisplayFusion 11.0.8; it was fine before that. The stable v11.1.1 has the same problem. ]]> RE: Bug in DF 11: Wallpapers do not update after monitor disconnect https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/bug-in-df-11-wallpapers-do-not-update-after-monitor-disconnect/?ID=0192f4a3-3391-7142-9b7e-e06c6f7ae163#31 Mon, 03 Feb 2025 15:22:07 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/bug-in-df-11-wallpapers-do-not-update-after-monitor-disconnect/?ID=0192f4a3-3391-7142-9b7e-e06c6f7ae163#31 DisplayFusion Thanks for sending that over, I wonder if OpenShell is causing this.

Thank you for the confirmation. I updated to 11.1 Beta 8 but infortunately the problem still persists and the start menu icon is smaller on my secondary monitor.

I updated to latest v11.0.5, set log level to L1, cleared the log, then enabled my third display after which the wallpapers update correctly, and then disabled that third display after which the wallpapers do not update anymore, and then saved the log. The log files are attached.

Is it possible to just force a wallpaper refresh after every display change? I think that should be sufficient to permanently address this problem and any other similar issue. ]]> RE: Bug in DF 11: Wallpapers do not update after monitor disconnect https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/bug-in-df-11-wallpapers-do-not-update-after-monitor-disconnect/?ID=0192f4a3-3391-7142-9b7e-e06c6f7ae163#14 Fri, 20 Dec 2024 13:46:37 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/bug-in-df-11-wallpapers-do-not-update-after-monitor-disconnect/?ID=0192f4a3-3391-7142-9b7e-e06c6f7ae163#14 DisplayFusion We've released a new version with some added logging. Could you update and send me a new log? Here are the steps:

On the DisplayFusion Settings > Troubleshooting tab, change the Logging drop-down to "L1: Log Minimal" and click Apply
Reproduce the issue and note the time so we'll know where to check in the log file
Click the "Export Info to File" button on the Settings > Troubleshooting tab
Reply with the file attached
Disable debug logging after sending the log

The wallpaper on the two monitors, however, is static. ]]> RE: Bug in DF 11: Wallpapers do not update after monitor disconnect https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/bug-in-df-11-wallpapers-do-not-update-after-monitor-disconnect/?ID=0192f4a3-3391-7142-9b7e-e06c6f7ae163#10 Tue, 12 Nov 2024 03:58:00 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/bug-in-df-11-wallpapers-do-not-update-after-monitor-disconnect/?ID=0192f4a3-3391-7142-9b7e-e06c6f7ae163#10 DisplayFusion I am not sure if slideshow is the best way to replicate this since it will force a refresh every time the wallpaper is supposed to change. The problem here is that every display change is supposed to force a wallpaper refresh, while the wallpaper never refreshes after the TV is disconnecetd. I have three static wallpapers defined, one for each display, and my TV has a different DPI than my monitors. The attached screenshots should help demonstrate the problem. '3-display.jpg' shows the wallpaperps when all three displays are connected. '2-display-broken.jpg' shows what happens when I disconnect the TV: the TV's wallpaper ends up spanning acorss the two monitors. '2-display-correct.jpg' shows what happens when I manually reapply the wallpapers in DF in this case, which forces the wallpapers to be refreshed and corrected. ]]> RE: Bug in DF 11: Wallpapers do not update after monitor disconnect https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/bug-in-df-11-wallpapers-do-not-update-after-monitor-disconnect/?ID=0192f4a3-3391-7142-9b7e-e06c6f7ae163#9 Mon, 11 Nov 2024 14:58:31 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/bug-in-df-11-wallpapers-do-not-update-after-monitor-disconnect/?ID=0192f4a3-3391-7142-9b7e-e06c6f7ae163#9 DisplayFusion I tested it out here with these steps but I couldn't seem to reproduce it:

1. Set the wallpaper to a slideshow, flipping through images
2. Disable monitor 2
3. Monitor 1 keeps flipping through the slideshow

Are you testing the same way? ]]>
