Glad to hear it's all good now though! ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/windows-start-pop-up-v7-beta-5/?ID=e25de29c-f35e-4d1f-a3b6-571672e2c14e#22 Thu, 13 Nov 2014 05:13:30 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/windows-start-pop-up-v7-beta-5/?ID=e25de29c-f35e-4d1f-a3b6-571672e2c14e#22 DisplayFusion Thanks, Keith - that worked.

That's a little disturbing though - how do things like an app's executables disappear? ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/windows-start-pop-up-v7-beta-5/?ID=e25de29c-f35e-4d1f-a3b6-571672e2c14e#21 Tue, 11 Nov 2014 21:42:57 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/windows-start-pop-up-v7-beta-5/?ID=e25de29c-f35e-4d1f-a3b6-571672e2c14e#21 DisplayFusion @James: It looks like the apphook EXEs are missing on your system. Could you try re-installing DisplayFusion? ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/windows-start-pop-up-v7-beta-5/?ID=e25de29c-f35e-4d1f-a3b6-571672e2c14e#20 Tue, 11 Nov 2014 05:39:52 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/windows-start-pop-up-v7-beta-5/?ID=e25de29c-f35e-4d1f-a3b6-571672e2c14e#20 DisplayFusion Odd - I don't have the Beta 7 version - just the straight v6.1.2 and mines doing it.

The times to look for in the attached log is 09:25PM. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/windows-start-pop-up-v7-beta-5/?ID=e25de29c-f35e-4d1f-a3b6-571672e2c14e#19 Sat, 08 Nov 2014 01:48:09 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/windows-start-pop-up-v7-beta-5/?ID=e25de29c-f35e-4d1f-a3b6-571672e2c14e#19 DisplayFusion Could you first try uninstalling DisplayFusion, and then re-install the latest 7.0 Beta? (currently Beta 7). If it's still busted after that, a debug log would be great

Should I include another log? ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/windows-start-pop-up-v7-beta-5/?ID=e25de29c-f35e-4d1f-a3b6-571672e2c14e#17 Wed, 05 Nov 2014 15:19:17 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/windows-start-pop-up-v7-beta-5/?ID=e25de29c-f35e-4d1f-a3b6-571672e2c14e#17 DisplayFusion We've just released DisplayFusion 7.0 Beta 6, and this should hopefully be all fixed up now.

I'll be sure to let you know as soon as it's available

I went back to the latest stable release and that has fixed it. We'll see for how long, but it should work! ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/windows-start-pop-up-v7-beta-5/?ID=e25de29c-f35e-4d1f-a3b6-571672e2c14e#14 Thu, 30 Oct 2014 21:36:24 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/windows-start-pop-up-v7-beta-5/?ID=e25de29c-f35e-4d1f-a3b6-571672e2c14e#14 DisplayFusion Nope, happened again.

Downgraded, then upgraded to Beta5 again and it seems to hold through restarts. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/windows-start-pop-up-v7-beta-5/?ID=e25de29c-f35e-4d1f-a3b6-571672e2c14e#11 Fri, 24 Oct 2014 18:53:30 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/windows-start-pop-up-v7-beta-5/?ID=e25de29c-f35e-4d1f-a3b6-571672e2c14e#11 DisplayFusion Thanks Leon! It looks like the 64-bit hooks aren't starting up for some reason. Could you try rolling back to 7.0 Beta 4 (http://www.binaryfortress.com/Files/DisplayFusion/DisplayFusionSetup-7.0.0-Beta4.exe) to see if you still have this issue? If not, could you try updating to 7.0 Beta 5 again to see if it comes back? ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/windows-start-pop-up-v7-beta-5/?ID=e25de29c-f35e-4d1f-a3b6-571672e2c14e#10 Fri, 24 Oct 2014 00:25:06 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/windows-start-pop-up-v7-beta-5/?ID=e25de29c-f35e-4d1f-a3b6-571672e2c14e#10 DisplayFusion I cleared the log, then clicked the start button on monitor2. The start menu on monitor1 opened. I clicked 2x more to close. These are the log files from that! ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/windows-start-pop-up-v7-beta-5/?ID=e25de29c-f35e-4d1f-a3b6-571672e2c14e#9 Thu, 23 Oct 2014 19:51:38 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/windows-start-pop-up-v7-beta-5/?ID=e25de29c-f35e-4d1f-a3b6-571672e2c14e#9 DisplayFusion Can you do the debugging steps from post #2 and then attach the logs?

Thanks! ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/windows-start-pop-up-v7-beta-5/?ID=e25de29c-f35e-4d1f-a3b6-571672e2c14e#8 Thu, 23 Oct 2014 12:10:56 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/windows-start-pop-up-v7-beta-5/?ID=e25de29c-f35e-4d1f-a3b6-571672e2c14e#8 DisplayFusion Actually, it broke after a PC reboot, and the debugging was still active. What would the next step be? I never had this problem until the most recent beta release. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/windows-start-pop-up-v7-beta-5/?ID=e25de29c-f35e-4d1f-a3b6-571672e2c14e#7 Tue, 21 Oct 2014 17:42:20 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/windows-start-pop-up-v7-beta-5/?ID=e25de29c-f35e-4d1f-a3b6-571672e2c14e#7 DisplayFusion Strange! Sounds like maybe the hooks weren't started. Does it break again if you disable logging? ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/windows-start-pop-up-v7-beta-5/?ID=e25de29c-f35e-4d1f-a3b6-571672e2c14e#6 Mon, 20 Oct 2014 21:14:11 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/windows-start-pop-up-v7-beta-5/?ID=e25de29c-f35e-4d1f-a3b6-571672e2c14e#6 DisplayFusion That's weird. I was having the exact same problem with the start menu. I enabled important only debugging, restarted the software and it fixed it. Win7 x64. Whatever it was, that did it! ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/windows-start-pop-up-v7-beta-5/?ID=e25de29c-f35e-4d1f-a3b6-571672e2c14e#5 Sat, 18 Oct 2014 10:55:53 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/windows-start-pop-up-v7-beta-5/?ID=e25de29c-f35e-4d1f-a3b6-571672e2c14e#5 DisplayFusion Great, shall do so! ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/windows-start-pop-up-v7-beta-5/?ID=e25de29c-f35e-4d1f-a3b6-571672e2c14e#4 Fri, 17 Oct 2014 18:25:44 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/windows-start-pop-up-v7-beta-5/?ID=e25de29c-f35e-4d1f-a3b6-571672e2c14e#4 DisplayFusion It keeps the file size to less than 10MB and just trims old lines as needed. So you can leave logging enabled, and just send the log next time it happens ]]>
