You can certainly try downgrading to 3.4: http://www.binaryfortress.com/Files/DisplayFusionSetup-3.4.0.exe

Please let me know if that fixes it up. I'll also post an update as soon as the next beta is available. We're making some more changes that will hopefully improve the performance and stability of the taskbar feature.

Thanks!

I apologize for the link! I've fixed it up and it should now point to the 3.4 download.

Thanks!

DisplayFusion 3.5 Beta 1 is now available, and has a bunch more performance and stability improvements. Could you give it a try and let me know how it goes?

Thanks!

Thanks for following up Bruce! Unfortunately those Windows error reports don't provide enough info

We'll keep working on it and I'll post an update as soon as a new build is ready to test.

Thanks!

Yep, that's normal, our internal build numbers are a little bit different from what we call them publicly

As for the crashing issue itself, we're still making some more changes, and we're adding some new metrics and extra information to the debug logging for the next beta version. I'll be sure to let you know as soon as it's available to try out.

Thanks!

DisplayFusion 3.5 Beta 2 is now available for download here: http://www.displayfusion.com/Download/Beta/

It will hopefully resolve any performance or stability issues, but if not, please do the following to help us troubleshoot it further:

• On the Troubleshooting tab, change the Logging drop-down to "Logging: All Lines"
• In the Advanced Settings, enable the "General: Advanced Debug Logging" option (note that if you already had the options in steps #1 and #2 enabled, please disable them to see if the performance issues still exist. If they do, turn them back on and proceed to step #3)
• During, or after the issue occurs, send me the info from the Troubleshooting tab, as well as the DisplayFusion.log file (can be found by clicking the Open Log button on the Troubleshooting tab)
• You can turn off the options from steps #1 and #2 after sending the info in step #3.

Thanks!

Thanks Bruce! Don't be alarmed that I deleted the attachments, I've downloaded them locally to my machine

I'll check these logs out and keep you posted!

Just to double check, do you have any Microsoft Keyboard or Mouse software (IntelliType or IntelliPoint) installed?

Just wanted to follow-up, is 3.4 still working ok for you?

I apologize that these performance issues are still ongoing, but they are a top priority for us, and will continue to be top priority until they are resolved.

As for the wallpaper request, we've got a number of wallpaper features and changes planned for the release after 3.5, and this one will definitely be in it.

Thanks!

Interesting! Which version of Bins are you running?

Ok, same version I'm testing with here. DisplayFusion's CPU usage seems to go up a couple percent when Bins is running, but it seems that a lot of other programs increase their CPU usage when Bins is running as well.

I noticed that with a bunch of programs open but idle when Bins is not running, the total CPU usage on my system was around 5-10%, with DisplayFusion at 0-1%. After launching Bins, the total CPU usage on my system went up to 25-30% and stayed there consistently, with DisplayFusion around 3-4%.

Not quite sure what to make of those results yet, but I'll definitely investigate it further.

Thanks!

Was that with or without Bins running?

Ok, we've got another idea on what might be causing it, so we're going to make some changes for Beta 5. I'll post an update as soon as it's available to try out.

Thanks!

Ok, I've actually been able to reproduce the issue with Bins finally. We're going to investigate it further and I'll be sure to post an update as soon as we find something out.

For the other folks that don't have Bins running, could you give 3.5 Beta 5 a try, and let me know how it works out? If the CPU is still high, please let me know whether it is consistently high, or if it creeps up over time.

Thanks!

Yep, this is exactly the behaviour I see when Bins is running as well. We'll do some more investigating and I'll keep you posted as soon as we find something out.

Thanks!

@Bruce: The initial thought was that the issues might be related, but we're working on both at the same time anyways. Were you able to give DisplayFusion 3.5 Beta 5 a try?

@Bruce: Ok, thanks for testing it out! Could you download Process Explorer (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb896653), use File > Save As to save the list of running processes, and attach it here so I can check it out? Just curious to see if there's anything running on your system that DisplayFusion might have some compatibility issues with.

Note, the attachments here are protected by default (only you and Binary Fortress staff can view/download them).

Thanks!

@Bruce: If you're still running into issues with DisplayFusion crashing, could you give 3.5 Beta 10 a try? We've made some changes to the taskbar that should hopefully have everything fixed up.

For the folks who were having issues with Bins, the Bins developer has posted an updated version at the link below that fixes up the issue:
