You can try disabling the "Enhance the taskbar" option in Start11 and see if that helps.

Thanks!


Not really an option since I need two-high task bar. I'll disable DF for now or tolerate the reset. ]]> RE: Secondary monitor task bar disappears/reallocates https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/secondary-monitor-task-bar-disappearsreallocates/?ID=019404a2-c51c-71af-9db1-f06586761f6e#9 Thu, 02 Jan 2025 16:11:36 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/secondary-monitor-task-bar-disappearsreallocates/?ID=019404a2-c51c-71af-9db1-f06586761f6e#9 DisplayFusion You can try disabling the "Enhance the taskbar" option in Start11 and see if that helps.

This is likely due to a conflict with Start11. If you close that out does the issue persist?


I'll give it a try...is there a setting that I can disable that conflicts? I won't be running without Start11 I suspect.... ]]> RE: Secondary monitor task bar disappears/reallocates https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/secondary-monitor-task-bar-disappearsreallocates/?ID=019404a2-c51c-71af-9db1-f06586761f6e#7 Tue, 31 Dec 2024 15:10:44 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/secondary-monitor-task-bar-disappearsreallocates/?ID=019404a2-c51c-71af-9db1-f06586761f6e#7 DisplayFusion This is likely due to a conflict with Start11.

Any sanitization that needs to be done with the logs? I have them captured.

is around where I unlocked, and the task bar reset. It's the same thing I see though when I'm just using it. I'll keep debug on and try to capture an event while I'm working.


I just got another incident at 2:31...oddly almost exactly 1 hour after the prior one...I have two sets of logs, and I've attached, with "Protect these attachments" selected... ]]> RE: Secondary monitor task bar disappears/reallocates https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/secondary-monitor-task-bar-disappearsreallocates/?ID=019404a2-c51c-71af-9db1-f06586761f6e#3 Fri, 27 Dec 2024 18:35:32 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/secondary-monitor-task-bar-disappearsreallocates/?ID=019404a2-c51c-71af-9db1-f06586761f6e#3 DisplayFusion

Periodically (i.e. several times an hour, unsure of specific trigger) and happens while using the system (i.e. not during login, suspend or other state transitions). Same symptoms of these threads that were supposedly resolved:

I can't find any other more recent threads. All items will move to the primary taskbar, the bar disappears off secondary, then it reappears an previous secondary taskbar items move back to the secondary monitor.
