It definitely could be a conflict with another application. If it remains stable, could you try re-enabling the hooks, then add a Compatibility rule for each application you normally use to disable the hooks for just those applications?

If it stays stable after that, try removing each Compatibility rule one at a time (let it run for a while after each one) to try to narrow down which program might be contributing to the issue.

It's tedious, but it's about the only way we'll be able to narrow it down.

Thanks! ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/display-fusion-running-very-slow-since-update/?ID=dd80fc6a-9bd6-41e8-810f-79e2f544ae53#9 Wed, 08 Jan 2014 02:16:58 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/display-fusion-running-very-slow-since-update/?ID=dd80fc6a-9bd6-41e8-810f-79e2f544ae53#9 DisplayFusion Sure seems like that fixed it. I will let it go for a few days and see if it persists. Does that indicate a bad interaction with an app? I havent really done much new lately beyond the DF update.

Make sure to restart DisplayFusion after disabling them.

I'm actually using the "minimize to the notification area instead of the task bar" option in Lync, so I believe the buttons were already disabled. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/display-fusion-running-very-slow-since-update/?ID=dd80fc6a-9bd6-41e8-810f-79e2f544ae53#6 Thu, 02 Jan 2014 18:44:52 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/display-fusion-running-very-slow-since-update/?ID=dd80fc6a-9bd6-41e8-810f-79e2f544ae53#6 DisplayFusion ahhh.. I am running lync too. I will try that and let you know. Sorry I didn't post the trouble shooting file. I will post at end of day if I still notice the problem.

Could you try disabling the TitleBar Buttons for Lync by creating a Compatibility rule in the DisplayFusion Settings? We've got an issue on our list related to Lync TitleBar Buttons, just wondering if yours is the same.

Thanks for taking a look. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/display-fusion-running-very-slow-since-update/?ID=dd80fc6a-9bd6-41e8-810f-79e2f544ae53#3 Tue, 31 Dec 2013 18:53:53 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/display-fusion-running-very-slow-since-update/?ID=dd80fc6a-9bd6-41e8-810f-79e2f544ae53#3 DisplayFusion Could you guys attach a copy of the info from the Settings > Troubleshooting tab?

It started with the update. I'm running Windows 7 and a Geforce 550 TI with some fairly old drivers.

-I frequently get the "wait for task/end task" warning from windows when I click on an app on the display fusion taskbar.
-Sometimes I'll hit the hotkey to move a window to the next monitor and it won't take effect for 10+ seconds.
-The "move window to next monitor" button in the title bar of windows sometimes draws incorrectly (black box around it).
-The settings app can take up to 30 seconds to load.

Rebooting or restarting displayfusion seems to help, but only for a few hours. It has been rock solid before this update. I too would love to roll back. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/display-fusion-running-very-slow-since-update/?ID=dd80fc6a-9bd6-41e8-810f-79e2f544ae53 Thu, 26 Dec 2013 19:04:42 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/display-fusion-running-very-slow-since-update/?ID=dd80fc6a-9bd6-41e8-810f-79e2f544ae53 DisplayFusion I recently updated my DisplayFusion Pro to version 5.1.1

Now it is running very slow. When I try to switch screens by clicking on the taskbar icon it takes as much as one minute to see the mini screen and then switch over to that application.

I am running windows 7 pro and NVIDIA GeForce GTX 670 with 4 monitors.

Just to open the DisplayFusion menu takes a good 2 to 3 seconds.

Is there any configuration changes I can make? Can I roll back to an older version of DisplayFusion somehow?

Thanks,
Alva ]]>
