I get an email every time someone replies here and it's really annoying since the issue is solved for me. I'm honestly thinking about marking it as spam since there apparently is no way to unsubscribe from this.

@chb80: BTW, you can just use the workaround I posted. It's way easier and more efficient than fiddling around with bug reports etc.

This issue should be all fixed up in the latest beta

It was driving me crazy, the calculator is opens really often.

So, since this thread is over a month old... any news on this or the mentioned beta? When will there be an Update/Fix?

At least now that I know that DP is causing it, there is a workaround: I disabled the taskbar of DP and activated the Windows taskbar instead. Luckily, it already offers different options for showing opened tasks. Since I only need the hotkeys to move windows to the next/previous monitor, that's all I need. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/random-windows-opening-win10/?ID=9f4d40df-ac31-4e24-a0ee-617782b7cf27#9 Thu, 06 Aug 2015 20:31:38 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/random-windows-opening-win10/?ID=9f4d40df-ac31-4e24-a0ee-617782b7cf27#9 DisplayFusion No worries! I'll pass the kind words on to our excellent devs. This should actually be fixed up for the next beta, as long as our internal testing on the fix goes well ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/random-windows-opening-win10/?ID=9f4d40df-ac31-4e24-a0ee-617782b7cf27#8 Thu, 06 Aug 2015 08:12:36 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/random-windows-opening-win10/?ID=9f4d40df-ac31-4e24-a0ee-617782b7cf27#8 DisplayFusion It is always nice when you see you are not the only person having a particular problem

It is also nice to see when a developer is already "on the case". Good work Keith. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/random-windows-opening-win10/?ID=9f4d40df-ac31-4e24-a0ee-617782b7cf27#7 Wed, 05 Aug 2015 23:24:15 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/random-windows-opening-win10/?ID=9f4d40df-ac31-4e24-a0ee-617782b7cf27#7 DisplayFusion Awesome. Thanks Keith! I was just getting ready to post that they opened on me when working today, without the monitors being in PS mode. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/random-windows-opening-win10/?ID=9f4d40df-ac31-4e24-a0ee-617782b7cf27#6 Wed, 05 Aug 2015 18:26:17 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/random-windows-opening-win10/?ID=9f4d40df-ac31-4e24-a0ee-617782b7cf27#6 DisplayFusion Hey guys! This is a known issue, due to the fact that when DF gets the window info (using Windows APIs) from Universal apps, they look exactly the same if they're minimized or "closed." They're both in a "Suspended" state, with the exact same window properties and dimension. For some reason, Windows 10 re-opens (but in the "closed" suspended states) previously used Universal apps for reasons I haven't been able to figure out yet, so then they get buttons on the DF taskbar, because we have to assume they're open but minimized.

At any rate, we have this on our list, and we're working hard to try and sort it out as soon as possible. I'll be sure to post an update when we're able to get it all fixed up.

Thanks! ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/random-windows-opening-win10/?ID=9f4d40df-ac31-4e24-a0ee-617782b7cf27#5 Mon, 03 Aug 2015 23:20:51 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/random-windows-opening-win10/?ID=9f4d40df-ac31-4e24-a0ee-617782b7cf27#5 DisplayFusion I have sent a report ticket to both Jon Tackabury and the support team, hopefully i will get a reply within the next few days with what is going on. I wanna keep using DF, but if this keeps happening, I have to keep it off. and Yea i am using the 7.2 Pro from Steam. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/random-windows-opening-win10/?ID=9f4d40df-ac31-4e24-a0ee-617782b7cf27#4 Mon, 03 Aug 2015 22:01:46 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/random-windows-opening-win10/?ID=9f4d40df-ac31-4e24-a0ee-617782b7cf27#4 DisplayFusion Same here with 7.2 pro. When ever the monitor shuts off, as soon as I bring it back up the Windows Store and now calculator app is always opened on my second monitor. I disabled DF to make sure that was the problem, and it didn't do it then, so it's something in DF. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/random-windows-opening-win10/?ID=9f4d40df-ac31-4e24-a0ee-617782b7cf27#3 Mon, 03 Aug 2015 21:59:32 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/random-windows-opening-win10/?ID=9f4d40df-ac31-4e24-a0ee-617782b7cf27#3 DisplayFusion I have the lastest version 7.2 pro

I include the troubleshooting document ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/random-windows-opening-win10/?ID=9f4d40df-ac31-4e24-a0ee-617782b7cf27#2 Mon, 03 Aug 2015 21:58:33 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/random-windows-opening-win10/?ID=9f4d40df-ac31-4e24-a0ee-617782b7cf27#2 DisplayFusion I have the same problem, it opens 4 apps: "get started", Calculator, "music Groove", and "alarm and clocks" I close them and they come back. It does not seem to follow a pattern with respect to time. I get Windows store as well sometimes but it always opens 4 apps. It will show on the Display fusion taskbar but not on the Windows one. In my case they open at the same last locations. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/random-windows-opening-win10/?ID=9f4d40df-ac31-4e24-a0ee-617782b7cf27 Mon, 03 Aug 2015 05:29:51 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/random-windows-opening-win10/?ID=9f4d40df-ac31-4e24-a0ee-617782b7cf27 DisplayFusion This only happens when i run display fusion (or i can only notice it when it is running) But at times the titlebar icon will appear in random location on my desktop, but there will be no window associated with it. When i click on it, it does what it is supposed to and transfers the "window" to the opposite screen, but will also open on of my Windows apps. I have checked my task manager when they appear to see if they are opening in the background but they do not register as an open window. only after i click the icon do they appear and register in Task Manager ]]>
