Was it DisplayFusion, or Deskscapes? If it was DisplayFusion, was is DisplayFusion 7.0 Beta 8? ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/beta-5-causes-explorerdeskscapes-to-misbehave/?ID=8a3e9bd0-fa65-4314-ab44-3b4c3165a5a0#8 Thu, 20 Nov 2014 17:22:34 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/beta-5-causes-explorerdeskscapes-to-misbehave/?ID=8a3e9bd0-fa65-4314-ab44-3b4c3165a5a0#8 DisplayFusion i didn't really pay notice .. it just struck me suddenly that 6 cores were running almost full doing nothing special. After the last update of DP deskscapes just freezes but no more excessive load. I guess deskcapes 3 is running out of sync with later updates of W7? I have deskscapes 8 but that is total crap compared to 3. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/beta-5-causes-explorerdeskscapes-to-misbehave/?ID=8a3e9bd0-fa65-4314-ab44-3b4c3165a5a0#7 Thu, 20 Nov 2014 16:45:19 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/beta-5-causes-explorerdeskscapes-to-misbehave/?ID=8a3e9bd0-fa65-4314-ab44-3b4c3165a5a0#7 DisplayFusion I still haven't had any luck reproducing these issues here. How long did it usually take before it started happening? ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/beta-5-causes-explorerdeskscapes-to-misbehave/?ID=8a3e9bd0-fa65-4314-ab44-3b4c3165a5a0#6 Tue, 28 Oct 2014 05:33:55 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/beta-5-causes-explorerdeskscapes-to-misbehave/?ID=8a3e9bd0-fa65-4314-ab44-3b4c3165a5a0#6 DisplayFusion tnx keith, i hope you find something! Hate to have to dump deskscapes. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/beta-5-causes-explorerdeskscapes-to-misbehave/?ID=8a3e9bd0-fa65-4314-ab44-3b4c3165a5a0#5 Mon, 27 Oct 2014 19:42:16 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/beta-5-causes-explorerdeskscapes-to-misbehave/?ID=8a3e9bd0-fa65-4314-ab44-3b4c3165a5a0#5 DisplayFusion Ok, thanks! I've installed Deskscapes 3 and we'll see what happens here ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/beta-5-causes-explorerdeskscapes-to-misbehave/?ID=8a3e9bd0-fa65-4314-ab44-3b4c3165a5a0#4 Sat, 25 Oct 2014 05:40:21 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/beta-5-causes-explorerdeskscapes-to-misbehave/?ID=8a3e9bd0-fa65-4314-ab44-3b4c3165a5a0#4 DisplayFusion it's 3 (version 8 is total crap) and windows 7 x64. Hope you'll find something. I've disabled deskcapes now and haven't had any explorer issues anymore since and pc is running 24/7. CPU usage is also within expected (normal) range. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/beta-5-causes-explorerdeskscapes-to-misbehave/?ID=8a3e9bd0-fa65-4314-ab44-3b4c3165a5a0#3 Fri, 24 Oct 2014 18:57:19 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/beta-5-causes-explorerdeskscapes-to-misbehave/?ID=8a3e9bd0-fa65-4314-ab44-3b4c3165a5a0#3 DisplayFusion I'll test this out here. Are you using Deskscapes 3 or 8? Also, which version of Windows are you running?

Thanks! ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/beta-5-causes-explorerdeskscapes-to-misbehave/?ID=8a3e9bd0-fa65-4314-ab44-3b4c3165a5a0#2 Fri, 24 Oct 2014 10:24:56 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/beta-5-causes-explorerdeskscapes-to-misbehave/?ID=8a3e9bd0-fa65-4314-ab44-3b4c3165a5a0#2 DisplayFusion also it eats cycles like there's no tomorrow. it hovers around 16% CPU time. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/beta-5-causes-explorerdeskscapes-to-misbehave/?ID=8a3e9bd0-fa65-4314-ab44-3b4c3165a5a0 Fri, 24 Oct 2014 06:31:20 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/beta-5-causes-explorerdeskscapes-to-misbehave/?ID=8a3e9bd0-fa65-4314-ab44-3b4c3165a5a0 DisplayFusion hi jon, Since beta 5 after a while Deskscapes freezes after a certain time and i need to restart explorer to get it going again. ]]>
