I'm not having any problems here with IE 10 and Dexpot on Windows 8.

Do you have to do anything (e.g. switch desktops) in those 30 seconds or will IE disappear all by itself?

You could go to "Settings > General", save a new profile and send me the .dxp file, in case it has something to do with your settings.

Seems that when I have DexSpot 1.6.9, build 2285 running, I cannot reliably keep MSIE 10 (v10.0.9200.16635) running. The app will launch, but within 30 seconds vanishes as if I'd never launched it. I've just this instant started the log file, so at the moment, I've nothing to share, but I'll reconnect later in the day and post any results.

Another oddity: If I start MSIE first, and then launch Dexspot, the issue seems to be reduced, if not eliminated. There are no notes regarding either application in Event Viewer, nor do there appear to be any obvious MSIE logs I can find either.

What else can I provide you to help sort this issue?
