Could you try disabling the Advanced Settings, updating to 9.0 Beta 4, and then let me know how it works out?

Thanks! ]]> RE: Clicking on task bar icon sometimes doesn't open the window and put it on top of the others https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/clicking-on-task-bar-icon-sometimes-doesnt-open-the-window-and-put-it-on-top-of-the-others/?ID=6dc7d3f7-67f0-4235-8ff5-0be2f223d091#4 Fri, 28 Apr 2017 18:04:13 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/clicking-on-task-bar-icon-sometimes-doesnt-open-the-window-and-put-it-on-top-of-the-others/?ID=6dc7d3f7-67f0-4235-8ff5-0be2f223d091#4 DisplayFusion This is a Windows 10 bug caused by any program that sets windows as "topmost," as we have to do for certain features like our taskbars and Titlebar Buttons. We're at the mercy of Microsoft fixing the underlying issue, but there are a couple of workarounds at the moment. Either one should resolve the issue:

  • Set all taskbars to the bottom position
  • Enable the Advanced Setting shown in the attached screenshot and restart DisplayFusion

Are any of your taskbars on the side instead of the bottom?


Yes, the taskbar for one of my screens is on the side and I am having a hard time opening them. I click multiple times and the windows doesn't come to the front. Also I have had other problems where I drag the window to another screen and it goes behind other existing windows! ]]> RE: Clicking on task bar icon sometimes doesn't open the window and put it on top of the others https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/clicking-on-task-bar-icon-sometimes-doesnt-open-the-window-and-put-it-on-top-of-the-others/?ID=6dc7d3f7-67f0-4235-8ff5-0be2f223d091#2 Wed, 26 Apr 2017 18:50:11 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/clicking-on-task-bar-icon-sometimes-doesnt-open-the-window-and-put-it-on-top-of-the-others/?ID=6dc7d3f7-67f0-4235-8ff5-0be2f223d091#2 DisplayFusion Are any of your taskbars on the side instead of the bottom? ]]> Clicking on task bar icon sometimes doesn't open the window and put it on top of the others https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/clicking-on-task-bar-icon-sometimes-doesnt-open-the-window-and-put-it-on-top-of-the-others/?ID=6dc7d3f7-67f0-4235-8ff5-0be2f223d091 Mon, 24 Apr 2017 22:01:19 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/clicking-on-task-bar-icon-sometimes-doesnt-open-the-window-and-put-it-on-top-of-the-others/?ID=6dc7d3f7-67f0-4235-8ff5-0be2f223d091 DisplayFusion I am running to a problem where clicking on the task bar icon sometimes doesn't open the window and put it on top of the others.

Is this because of DisplayFusion, Windows 10, or a combination of both? Is this a known bug? ]]>
