Is there or will there be a Windows Arm version? I will be getting the new Arm-based Surface laptop soon.

This isn't something we would add in the near future, but it is on our feature request list so I've added your vote to it.

Thanks!

I too am the owner of a new Snapdragon X Windows laptop, and would be interested in an ARM version.

Please add me to the vote.
The team could work and release a temporary version which only has the taskbar and alt tab windows management settings features... since no other app has these. The current emulation to windows arm even on my max specced 84 x elite is slow.

I have a principle that says not to buy for future promises but rather current version. and currently this is not worth 30.

I have now the same problem after having switched to a Snapdragon based notebook. Any update on the sw availability will be much apprechiated.

Many thanks.

Hello - also adding my voice here. I have a paid copy of Displayfusion and could really use an ARM64 installer for my new laptop. Thank you!

I'm on a Surface Pro 11 and DF is mostly working fine, but I have one annoying problem I mention here: https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/clicking-start-menu-switches-monitors-when-using-monitor-fading/?ID=01940087-1f5c-751e-890e-29a52d58ec79 . I'm wondering if others on ARM systems have the same problem? I'm not sure if it's just me, or a general problem, or an incompatibility with ARM. The problem is that I can't use Multimonitor Taskbar at the same time as Monitor Fading because clicking on the Windows icon on a secondary monitor will switch focus to the primary monitor. It means you can't use the Start Menu on a secondary monitor when monitor fading is enabled.

I am unable to use my start menu on any monitors except the primary display, either. If I click the start button, the start menu appears on the screen I want, before immediately closing.
This is not the case for my logical monitors added through displayfusion on my 49" super ultrawide screen, but if I use the start menu on my laptop (which is not set up as my primary display) the start menu opens and immediately closes.
I also have issues with my logical monitors and maximizing an app. Clicking the Maximize button on the app I am using maximizes the monitor to the entire 49" display instead of just the logical screen I've divided the monitor into. Maximizing to the logical screen works fine if I do it using a hotkey set up in displayfusion.
This behaviour is only seen on my Surface laptop with ARM processor, and worked fine previously on my Lenovo T14 with an x86 processor.

We've released a new beta with some added ARM detection and fixes, can everyone here try it out and let us know if you run into any issues? Here's the link: https://www.displayfusion.com/Download/Beta/

So that's great news, hope is up again to finally consider buying this then.

Few issues:

1. As the image shows, the arm version still has dependencies on the x64 net desktop instead of the arm version.

2. It seems there is a low frame rate on the settings menu and especially the functions table when scrolling. (only actually native feeling window is the troubleshooting info one)

3. How good is the integration with the latest start 11 task bar... with another monitor.
(the only reason i have wanted this app is to show only the apps on the task bar on the external monitor that i dont use on it so it is not a duplicate...)

@ajt17c Could you send a debug log? Here are the steps:

  • On the DisplayFusion Settings > Troubleshooting tab, change the Logging drop-down to "L1: Log Minimal"
  • Reproduce the issue and note the time so we'll know where to check in the log file
  • Click the "Export Info to File" button on the Settings > Troubleshooting tab
  • Reply with the file attached
  • Disable debug logging after sending the log

1. We can't target ARM natively because of some third party libraries, for now it's still an x64 app with ARM detection.
2. We were able to reproduce something similar intermittently here, we'll see if we can make improvements going forward
3. The "Enhance the taskbar" opton in Start11 will break the work area on DisplayFusion taskbars. We aren't aware of any other conflicts.

Thanks!

Oh dang, I am unable to turn that one off, since it keeps my windows button on the left while having the rest of the icons on the center...

Is it possible to send a fix for that for both programs work maybe?

We've looked into it in the past but it's not fixable from our end unfortunately

so I've tried 11.1.1 on my Surface laptop (ARM64) and I am seeing different maximization behaviour depending on what app I am using. I'm not seeing anything at the BETA link you've provided at the moment.
If I double-click the title bar of an app, Chrome will expand to my logical monitor only (as wanted), but if I do the same thing with Microsoft Edge, it expands over my full monitor, and not the smaller logical monitor I've set with displayfusion.
If I use a hotkey to expand to the logical monitor, both apps will expand to just the logical monitor. If I drag and drop an app from one logical screen to another, it will not expand to the logical monitor.

So,I've been having some terrible system freezes ongoing for a few months now, seemingly random, and can last between 3-10 minutes in duration. I saved all my system, application and security logs and had them reviewed by ChatGPT and this is what it found:

Explorer.exe Hang at 6:01:30 PM:
Source: Application Hang (Event ID 1002)
This event indicates that explorer.exe, a core Windows process responsible for the desktop and taskbar, became unresponsive.

It is likely the root symptom of your entire system freezing — mouse and UI responsiveness rely on this process.
Windows Error Reporting (WER):
WER entries (Event ID 1001) around 6:01:30 PM and 5:58 PM show that Windows collected information on hangs or crashes.

DisplayFusionService Activity:

Multiple DisplayFusionService logs are present throughout the freeze window.
While not showing errors, frequent logs suggest it's active — this might be worth reviewing as a potential conflict if you suspect DisplayFusion is interacting with displays, virtual desktops, or window management during freezes.

I also managed to open task manager a few minutes into the system freeze, and Displayfusion was taking up the most CPU cycles for the brief moment the task manager responded (see attachment).

A .WER report generated from the crash indicates the following:
The AppHang in explorer.exe is likely a symptom of the underlying kernel-level problem reported in the LiveKernelEvent.

These issues could stem from:
Graphics driver problems
Power delivery/firmware bug (e.g. BIOS, ACPI, thermal throttling)
Faulty driver (Intel/AMD GPU, storage controller, etc.)
Third-party shell integrations (like DisplayFusion)

I'm not sure where to go with this, but my colleage has the exact same laptop, same docking station at his desk, and never has issues; he does not use Displayfusion. Both systems are new Surface Laptop 7 with qualcomm snapdragon processors purchased this year.
