Hey there!
I've had a persistent issue when switching monitor profiles, primarily via hotkey. With a couple of my profiles it seems like occasionally they get stuck in an off/on loop. I'll see the picture on the correct monitor for a few seconds then it'll flip back, then correct, then back over and over. This is either fixed by hammering on the hotkey until it seems to stay, or force quitting Display Fusion.
With another of my profiles, it works, but the picutre and audio stutters hard every 10 seconds until I manually change the profile/audio again.
Sorry to tack on a secondary issue, but I just updated to 24H2 and ever since then a couple of my custom functions have lost their hotkeys and I can't edit them. If I try to edit I get:
Error: The type initializer for 'ActiproSoftware.UI.WinForms.Controls.SyntaxEditor.Implementation.EditorSearchOptions' threw an exception.
The type initializer for 'ActiproSoftware.Internal.tjL' threw an exception.

We've made some changes in our latest beta to our monitor config code. Can you try it out and let me know if the issue persists? Here's the link: https://www.displayfusion.com/Download/Beta/
Are you an administrator on your computer?

I am the administrator. It looks like the latest beta is Beta 3, and I believe I was on Beta 2. I'll download 3 and give it a shot. It's a somewhat intermittent issue so I'll test it out.

I was able to reproduce the issue at 9:32 AM, switching to profile "Desktop 21:9". Here's the log.
I also noticed that when this issue occurs, the displayfusion app becomes slow to the point of being almost unresponsive, and the right-click menu on the taskbar gets bugged.

I did also notice tonight whenthe problem happened again, the hitching does seem to come from it trying to switch to the audio device over and over. I manually switched away from the defined audio device, and it kept auto-switching back every few seconds.
The DisplayFusion app and the taskbar menu are almost completely frozen during the issue. If I try to open any DisplayFusion window (the monitor config panel for example) it takes over 30 seconds to open, but once it opens the issue seems to resolve itself.

It looks like the log starts at 9:42:40, I don't think it captured it. Could you try those steps again?

Here's 2 more logs. One where the problem happened at 17:06, and the other I don't know exactly but around 19:15-19:20.
I've actually noticed that the debug.log seems to start right after the issue. I don't know if that means the issue is causing the log to refresh as well, but the DebugService.log goes back far enough if that's what you need.

Oh, I thought I'd also mention that the other issue with the error message was resolved with the latest beta update:
" Error: The type initializer for 'ActiproSoftware.UI.WinForms.Controls.SyntaxEditor.Implementation.EditorSearchOptions' threw an exception."
This is now working.
Yeah strange the log is still starting too late, it should start as soon as you set the log level. Just to confirm you're setting the log to Level 1, and then reproducing the issue?

Yep and I just tried a 3rd time. Every time the log starts right after the issue, so I think the issue is causing an app restart or log dump as well or something.
I tried uninstalling and reinstalling today and that didn't help. I might try full uninstalling and removing all files and settings after that. Will my licence still work if I do that?
