Dexpot, Actual Multiple Monitors and Explorer

[cs96and]

First of all, thanks for a writing a great utility. I have used a few virtual desktop programs in the past, but Dexpot is easily the best one I have used.

I am using Dexpot on Windows 7 64-bit. I also have Actual Multiple Monitors installed. This gives me an additional taskbar on the second monitor, and each taskbar only displays entries for the applications running on that screen.

Mostly this works fine with Dexpot, however, if I have an explorer window on my second monitor, when I switch to a different Dexpot desktop, the taskbar entry for explorer does not disappear, even though the window itself has disappeared. This does not happen for any other applications on the second taskbar, or for explorer windows on my main taskbar.

I appreciate there is an interaction between two applications here, but given that it is Dexpot's job to update the taskbar when switching desktops, it seems to me that this is a problem in Dexpot, not Actual Multiple Monitors.

Did you ever get an answer to your post? I have the exact same problem. This only happens with Windows explorer. While it isnt a major deal, it is semi-annying.

No I haven't heard anything.

The new version seems to have fixed the problem, thanks!

Out of interest, what was the problem?
