I'm seeing these ghost Metro apps showing up on my virtual desktops in the taskbar pager. I close them, then they come back by themselves.
PLEASE, DEVELOPERS, FIX THIS! SO ANNOYING!
Windows 10 bug with Microsoft apps
Re: Windows 10 bug with Microsoft apps
Unfortunately, adding the mywechsel.ini file above doesn't fix the problem. I'm still getting ghost windows from Microsoft metro apps. It just changes the behavior so the ghost windows just show up in the taskbar pager and the window catalog. Currently, one of them is the Settings app, which is part of Windows itself, so I can't uninstall it.

Re: Windows 10 bug with Microsoft apps
disable superfetch in services and metro or microsoft apps do not preload. To disable, find superfetch and in properties choose disable. All problems solved.

OMG you're my hero paracanary, it works indeed !
No more annoying ghost windows popping everywhere !
This solution should definitly be sticked and added to the FAQ for windows 10 users.

thank you for reporting.
Copy the file attached into the Dexpot main directory.
Please confirm this fixes the issue after restarting Dexpot.
FIXED THE PROBLEM FOR ME, TOO! THANKS!!!

I can confirm the fix I provided (see above) is just a partial solution. Needs to be fixed code-wise. Thanks for reporting.

Re: Windows 10 bug with Microsoft apps
Is there a Dexpot fix in the works? Whilst disabling superfetch seems like a workaround, I actually want superfetch enabled for my system.

Re: Windows 10 bug with Microsoft apps
That fixed it for me too. Though I hate this type of bandaid. Is a fix coming?
Re: Windows 10 bug with Microsoft apps
With the latest version of Windows 10, this issue seems to have re-surfaced. The original fix no longer seems to resolve this issue.
Re: Windows 10 bug with Microsoft apps
yes, the problem has returned!
Re: Windows 10 bug with Microsoft apps
Wow nice! The start menu bug is fixed that additional INI file, glad I did a google search I was about to make a script to restart explorer every time it happened. Thanks! But yeah...just release a new version? Also for the pro users..
Re: Windows 10 bug with Microsoft apps
I am still using dexpot with windows 11. And the ini file solved my last problems with dexpot! The start menu bug was very annowying. Plus I had 'windows input experience' popping up on every desktop in the full screen preview.
Both things solved.
Thank you so much
