 AWM 8.6.2, Win 10, 32, IExplore, Chrome, Opera

But does work in MS Edge.

This is a new problem, maybe recent Win10 updates? There are no icons or windows menu. Specific Settings doesn't help. I can set up the commands but clicking Apply does nothing and grays out the Apply button. I was going to accuse Opera of making it impossible but this happens on 3 different browsers.

 Hello, tcebob

What exactly Windows 10 update are you talking about?

What is the exact version and build of your Windows 10 (you can find it here: press Windows Key + R, type “winver” into the Run dialog, and press Enter).

What versions of these browsers are you running?

Best regards.

Do the AWM items appear in window's system menu for these browsers? If yes, could you tell me what settings are applied to these windows (window's system menu > Manage window settings > the name of the settings is in the first item of the opened sub-menu).

Best regards.

 Bogdan, thanks for your response & sorry to take so long to answer. I need a little guidance: How to find the window's system menu. In Windows or in AWM? If you are referring to Specific Settings, for Opera the first line is "Window class: OpWindow | Window caption: Opera | Program: \opera.exe."

 tcebob,

No, window's system menu is the conext menu which appears when you right click the window's title bar. The AWM items are: Manage window settings, quick window settings and different AWM window actions like Minimize to tray, Roll Up etc.

 Oh. That didn't work either. But this is good news: It suddenly began to work. Not spontaneously; I uninstalled AWM with Revo and reinstalled, being careful to include system windows. No luck until, for other reasons, I rebooted twice. After a while I noticed the icons were there. Fresh download of AWM,  ver. 8.7. Unless Actual slipped in a minor update I'm willing to blame Microsoft, whose upgrades are coming thick and fast.

Thanks again!

 tcebob,

Do you mean the problem doesn't appear now?

Do you launch these browsers in the Run as Administrator mode? If yes, then it is clear why enabling of the Support system utilities option solved this problem.
