I recently upgraded to DF 7.1 from 7.0 and since then I have had nothing but constant crashing of the DF taskbar. It will startup and function just fine but after awhile when I go to click on it. It freezes and Windows throws up its not responding.

I attached the log with Debug level 1.

Any thoughts?

I second this.

The bar looks fine, but when I go to click something on it I notice it's frozen and does not respond. I have to let windows shut it down then start DisplayFusion again. It's quite disruptive.

I'm also on 7.1.

I've found that this only seems to happen when I have Photoshop (CS6 64x) running.

It hasn't happened while playing games or doing other things so far. Just when I'm drawing in photoshop.

Edit: Included today's log where there's been one such freezing and crashing.

We're pretty sure we've found the root cause of the taskbar hang issues, and we're working on a solution as we speak. I'll let you guys know as soon as we have a new build to test out :)

Thanks!

Could you guys give this build a try and let me know how it works out? No logs needed, just let me know if it hangs/crashes or not.

Thanks!

Installed it this morning, so far it hasn't crashed.

Survived a couple of hours of drawing in photoshop even!

I will keep running it and report back again in a couple of days unless anything happens.

Ah, too bad! We think we know what the issue is, but it seems to be a bug in the .NET Framework. We're going to open a ticket with Microsoft to see if they can help us track this down. I'll be sure to post an update as soon as we have more news.

Thanks!

Ok! We've got a new build for you to try out :)

I don't need debug logs or anything, just let me know if it hangs or not. I can reproduce the hang every time now with 7.2 Beta 1, but not with this new 7.2 Beta 2 build, so hopefully it's all fixed up for you as well! Here's the link: http://www.binaryfortress.com/Files/DisplayFusion/DisplayFusionSetup-7.2.0-Beta2.exe

Thanks!

Same thing here, repeated hang with 7.1 on Windows 7, so I foundthis thread, and downloaded 7.2 beta5 , the crashes are still there. After about 15 mins, I will see the screen flickers a bit, and then DF won't respond anymore.

I'm also experiencing frequent crashes on Windows 8.1 with DF 7.1

We did find one issue that could cause a hang even in 7.2 Beta 5, and we'll have it all fixed up for 7.2 Beta 6. Could you guys update to Beta 6 when it's available (hopefully later this week or next week) and let me know how it goes?
