So the nvsmartmaxapp processes definitely aren't showing up in Task Manager any more? Also, one step I forgot to mention, is that you need to reboot after DisplayFusion disables the Nvidia helper processes. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/everything-gets-scrambled-after-existing-anything-from-full-screen/?ID=e947ee02-1136-4e91-8064-8c4bce671cc2#5 Mon, 01 Dec 2014 19:23:12 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/everything-gets-scrambled-after-existing-anything-from-full-screen/?ID=e947ee02-1136-4e91-8064-8c4bce671cc2#5 DisplayFusion Ok, that seems to have solved the problem,
cheers

lol, spoke too soon,
just after posting this, the task bar went on top again and window spanned across all monitors~ ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/everything-gets-scrambled-after-existing-anything-from-full-screen/?ID=e947ee02-1136-4e91-8064-8c4bce671cc2#4 Mon, 01 Dec 2014 18:37:08 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/everything-gets-scrambled-after-existing-anything-from-full-screen/?ID=e947ee02-1136-4e91-8064-8c4bce671cc2#4 DisplayFusion Ok, could you check the DisplayFusion Settings > Advanced Settings window, and see if the "Don't check Nvidia processes" option is enabled? If it is, can you disable it, then restart DisplayFusion? When you get prompted to disable the Nvidia processes after the restart, click Yes, and that should resolve this issue. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/everything-gets-scrambled-after-existing-anything-from-full-screen/?ID=e947ee02-1136-4e91-8064-8c4bce671cc2#3 Fri, 28 Nov 2014 19:28:38 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/everything-gets-scrambled-after-existing-anything-from-full-screen/?ID=e947ee02-1136-4e91-8064-8c4bce671cc2#3 DisplayFusion Yes, it is running. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/everything-gets-scrambled-after-existing-anything-from-full-screen/?ID=e947ee02-1136-4e91-8064-8c4bce671cc2#2 Fri, 28 Nov 2014 18:26:41 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/everything-gets-scrambled-after-existing-anything-from-full-screen/?ID=e947ee02-1136-4e91-8064-8c4bce671cc2#2 DisplayFusion Can you check the Windows Task Manager to see if the nvsmartmaxapp processes are running? DisplayFusion should be disabling those, as they conflict with the DisplayFusion hooks for monitor splitting, but it sounds like that might not have happened on your system. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/everything-gets-scrambled-after-existing-anything-from-full-screen/?ID=e947ee02-1136-4e91-8064-8c4bce671cc2 Thu, 27 Nov 2014 19:06:46 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/everything-gets-scrambled-after-existing-anything-from-full-screen/?ID=e947ee02-1136-4e91-8064-8c4bce671cc2 DisplayFusion *I'm using surround @7680x1600 -> 8060x1600 with bezel, 3x1 setup
*Running on win 7 ultimate

If i'm playing anything on fullscreen then exit to desktop (or from my login screen), my windows task bar gets shifted and displayed on the top position of my screen, all my windows that I had maximized to a single monitor gets stretched out and gets maximized on the whole surround span.
My taskbar keeps stretching and gets centered and stretches again for a couple of times before settling, then I have to right click -> readjust for it to be positioned on the "down" position of my desktop.
This gets annoying after a while, been baring for almost a month but its too much.

what can I do to stop this from happening?

1 more issue since i'm at it, certain programs when I maximize them on the side monitors it gets maximized to the whole screen but the lower section (where the task bar should have been) is blacked out, (mostly Microsoft office 2013 programs). Any fixes for that? ]]>
