Hey! I have my wallpapers set up to grab two different images on both monitors, this has been working fine until I updated to Win 10.
Now for some reason there is only one image repeated on both monitors.
Restarting my computer seems to fix the issue but only for a while. I think it changes back when my computer goes into sleep or something.
Also I do have another issue (although this may be related to only win 10). It seems that my laptop copies the wallpaper of my desktop. But with fusion this leads to two different images stitched together. I suspect it has something to do with my Microsoft account but I cant find a toggle or option for it.
If anyone has an answer or fix to either question I'd greatly appreciate it!
My desktop screen print is attached for clarity.
Using the steam version of DF.

In the Windows Task Manager, can you add the "GDI Objects" column, and when the desktop stops refreshing, can you check what the value of that column is?

GDI objects are:
51 for DisplayFusion.exe
12 for both DisplayFusionHookApp.exe
0 for Display Fusion Service.exe
I did find a fix to my laptop problem (there was an odd syncing issue)
The desktop problem persists however
Ah sorry, I forgot to ask if you could check the GDI Objects count for Explorer.exe as well. Can you check that when it happens again?

Explorer = 2318
DisplayFusion.exe = 51
HookApp = 12
HookApp = 12
Service = 0
(edit) seems like explorer changes +-6ish, but I only looked at it for a half minute
(another edit) seems like restarting explorer fixes issue momentarily, will retest to check if this is true

Interesting! What's the GDI Object count on Explorer when you restart it? And how long does it take before it gets to 2000+?

interesting, I just checked and It looks like I have two explorer.exe processes running at the same time. both with a different amount of memory used and different GDI objects (21kmb, 13mb, 428 GDI, 455 GDI respectively).
I closed both and ran a new process, the GDI objects is at 136 with no visible climb at the moment, ill check back on it in a an hour or so.
Ok, interesting! Does another explorer.exe instance show up eventually?

No, I think that was just user error
