Hi,
I'm having some generic slow performance on DF, which i unceremoniously worked around by disabling global application hooks as problem feels too unspecified to easily troubleshoot. (slow taskbar window peek, DF itself opening/navigating slow, general feeling of sluggish system) But the side effect is that alt+tab is only showing main monitor windows when DF alt+tab functionality is enabled OR disabled (looks as if DF is handling it even in disabled state in settings.) Only shutting down DF seems to return windows own alt+tab handler with full functionality. So any way to keep DF from touching alt tab?

Hello,
After disabling Alt+Tab in the DisplayFusion Settings, can you set the Taskbar Mode to "Windows taskbar shows all windows, DisplayFusion shows relevant windows", and see if the issue persists? Thanks!

That did the trick, thanks a lot!
Though unfortunate side effect is that now main monitor is showing every monitors tray icons as duplicates, but at least its workable |

Hello,
We'll definitely want to fix up that performance issue, which should fix up your alt tab issues as well when you re-enable application hooks. When your system slows down, if you open Task Manager > Processes, is anything high in usage? Thanks!

usually firefox (twitch/youtube) with 10-20% and second is Displayfusion with 3-10%, but its hard to pinpoint what is triggering the jump in cpu load, as i might just be on the desktop doing nothing.
Disabling Application hooks helps somewhat, but still can go up to high utilization (i7-8700k), running as low priority process changes nothing

Hello,
Interesting, if you re-enable those hooks, can you open the DisplayFusion Settings window and disable some of the settings listed (Triggers, Multi-Monitor Taskbars, Screen Saver, etc.) the next time the issue happens, and see if anything in particular fixes it up? Thanks!

Fresh launch all hooks re-enabled: DF cpu 0,4% & 71,4 MB ram
Jumping between active windows by clicking on multi monitor taskbars: DF cpu spikes to 5% temporarily, but drops back to 0,4% t+90min DF cpu 1,3% 95,1 MB ram t+2h DF cpu jumping between 1,4-2,2%, t+4h DF cpu 4,7-5,2% 261 MB ram, same programs open. Average utilization seemed to increase gradually over time starting settings changes screen saver, already off triggers, already off key combinations, disabled no change Multi-monitor taskbar, disabled -> drop down to 2% cpu maximized window dragging between monitors, disabled -> spike up to 4,9-6,1% and stay there maximized window dragging between monitors, re-enable -> marginally lower 4,5-5,5% (coincidental?) edit:9 hours later now closing to 10% cpu load while i was out and computer idle, so definitely increasing over time

Tried running with multi monitor taskbar disabled and all other features enabled.
stable 0,1% cpu load, so seems like culprit is clear

Could you try updating to the latest beta, then when the CPU usage is high, send us a new copy of the troubleshooting info? (steps below)
Could you send me a copy of your troubleshooting info? Here are the steps:

Looks like I'm already running the latest beta and luckily i already exported the troubleshooting details when i was testing the earlier high cpu situation
