I don't see anything suspicious in the troubleshooting info. Could you try updating to the latest 7.2 Beta (http://www.displayfusion.com/Download/Beta/) and if that doesn't fix it up, send over a full debug log?

On the Troubleshooting tab, change the Logging drop-down to "L1: Log Minimal"
Restart DisplayFusion
Try to drag the MMC window near the edge of a monitor to see if it will snap, and note the time so we'll know where to check in the log file
Send us the DisplayFusion.log and DebugInfo.html files (can be found by clicking the Open Log button on the Troubleshooting tab)
Disable debug logging after sending the log

Open the DisplayFusion Settings > Troubleshooting tab
Click the Copy to Clipboard button
Open Notepad, paste the text, and save the file
Reply with the text file attached

Or is it just random?

Regarding the mouse wrapping question, it's not possible to display the left half of the window on the right side of the right monitor. Windows can't technically wrap, we just have to move it to the other monitor when the mouse gets moved

I was able to reproduce the "getting stuck" part using Corel's Paint Shop Pro X6. The crashing part I couldn't with either this or Turbo Lister this morning. The "getting stuck" part, like crashing, is erratic though.

One odd thing I noticed (maybe I wasn't looking previously). I have left-right mouse wrapping enabled (not top-bottom). When I drag the large center window to the left monitor, it keeps going to a point with the window on both the left and center monitors until it suddenly just snaps or shows up on the right monitor only. If this "window wrapping" function was working smoothly, then the left edge of the window I am moving would appear on the right edge of the right monitor, the left monitor would have the center of the window, and the right edge of the window would be on the left side of the center monitor. Instead it just pops over, although I can move it back and forth without problem (with the "2" - "1" - "3" image overlays as appropriate).

With Turbo Lister, I have the main/parent window broaching both the left and center monitors, the left-most "directory" column on the left monitor while the content is on the center monitor. When I open a child window (specific auction) it automatically full-screens on the center monitor, which I then move to the left one. This is when DF acts up, when it does. Interestingly, when/after DF crashes and the child window has closed (because I pressed the ESCape key), the parent window in now fully on the center monitor, not divided anymore.

While Turbo Lister may be an abomination, I don't think it's the culprit here. ]]> RE: Just downloaded newest version; no windows snapping https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/just-downloaded-newest-version-no-windows-snapping/?ID=cbaec78e-a20a-4673-ad94-a4455d9c16bc#25 Mon, 22 Dec 2014 16:10:06 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/just-downloaded-newest-version-no-windows-snapping/?ID=cbaec78e-a20a-4673-ad94-a4455d9c16bc#25 DisplayFusion Is it only this application that crashes DisplayFusion? If so, can you contact us at support@displayfusion.com so we can gather some more information and hopefully reproduce the issue on our test machines? Thanks! ]]> RE: Just downloaded newest version; no windows snapping https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/just-downloaded-newest-version-no-windows-snapping/?ID=cbaec78e-a20a-4673-ad94-a4455d9c16bc#24 Mon, 22 Dec 2014 06:32:18 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/just-downloaded-newest-version-no-windows-snapping/?ID=cbaec78e-a20a-4673-ad94-a4455d9c16bc#24 DisplayFusion I'm having a variation of this problem. First off, I do NOT have window snapping enabled.

Using eBay's Turbo Lister product (which is a god-awful pig of a program that must have been written by middle school programmer drop-outs), when I move a window from the center monitor to the left monitor, if I don't place the top of window at or beyond the top edge of the monitor, then one of two things happens, either DF crashes after sucking up a bunch of CPU, or the window will not relocate to the left monitor. Or back on the center one for that matter. All that happens is I get the big "2" or "1" monitor identification overlays as I move the cursor back and forth between the left and center monitors! Mouse keys have no effect, I have to press the ESCape key to stop the process and start over.

After DF crashes I can move the Turbo Lister window and it will auto-maximize (full screen) just fine. (The left/destination monitor is smaller than the center monitor.) ]]> RE: Just downloaded newest version; no windows snapping https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/just-downloaded-newest-version-no-windows-snapping/?ID=cbaec78e-a20a-4673-ad94-a4455d9c16bc#23 Mon, 22 Dec 2014 03:56:42 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/just-downloaded-newest-version-no-windows-snapping/?ID=cbaec78e-a20a-4673-ad94-a4455d9c16bc#23 DisplayFusion Just posted another thread did not see this one glad it's not just me experiencing broken snapping with v7 final. I had to actually revert back to allsnap 32&64 temporarily just to ensure I wasn't going nuts in particular with Skype chat windows is a good test they are totally hit or miss. ]]> RE: Just downloaded newest version; no windows snapping https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/just-downloaded-newest-version-no-windows-snapping/?ID=cbaec78e-a20a-4673-ad94-a4455d9c16bc#22 Thu, 18 Dec 2014 20:51:00 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/just-downloaded-newest-version-no-windows-snapping/?ID=cbaec78e-a20a-4673-ad94-a4455d9c16bc#22 DisplayFusion Yeah, there's definitely something funky going on here. We'll be investigating this further and should hopefully have it fixed up for 7.0.1 Beta 1. I'll keep you posted when we have more news

1. The first window snapped just fine.
2. The second window snapped after a few failed initial attempts.
3. The third window snapped, but ~5 pixels above the taskbar.
4. The fourth window wouldn't snap.

So, it's still not working as it's supposed to. ]]> RE: Just downloaded newest version; no windows snapping https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/just-downloaded-newest-version-no-windows-snapping/?ID=cbaec78e-a20a-4673-ad94-a4455d9c16bc#18 Wed, 17 Dec 2014 21:42:11 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/just-downloaded-newest-version-no-windows-snapping/?ID=cbaec78e-a20a-4673-ad94-a4455d9c16bc#18 DisplayFusion No. I am simply trying to snap standard Windows 7 folder explorer windows. ]]> RE: Just downloaded newest version; no windows snapping https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/just-downloaded-newest-version-no-windows-snapping/?ID=cbaec78e-a20a-4673-ad94-a4455d9c16bc#17 Wed, 17 Dec 2014 21:40:43 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/just-downloaded-newest-version-no-windows-snapping/?ID=cbaec78e-a20a-4673-ad94-a4455d9c16bc#17 DisplayFusion Aha!

I just installed DF 7.0 on my Windows 7 64-bit machine and found one program where snapping fails: Google Chrome. Snapping works for: Windows Explorer, Word and other Office apps, Acrobat, Firefox, Internet Explorer and several other less common programs. I haven't been able to find any other programs where snapping fails. Note that all other programs will snap to Chrome windows, but not vice versa. I'm using two monitors - snapping, when it works, works for all boundaries of both monitors.

Pretty much the only windows I ever snap are Chrome windows and I can confirm they are not, but indeed explorer ones are (as are my RealVNC windows). So perhaps this is a Chrome-specific issue.
