 Just upgraded to AWM 4.4. I use Windows Explorer Toolbars on the top of my screen (Desktop) for quick launch and also with TrueLaunchBar.

Since upgrading to AWM 4.4 when Windows loads and that top toolbar and then AWM load the toolbar moves like an inch down the screen so it isn't docked at the top anymore. I have to remove all of the toolbars to the Desktop (non-docked mode) and then move them back.

I unloaded AWM from autostarting and the problem goes away. This did not occur in 4.3.

I've also noticed that menus in some programs now always show up on the top left of my screen. Odd.

I can post screenshots and e-mail a config if you need but for now I'm not running AWM.

 Dear Vince,

It would be better to see screenshots. But you can also try to  disable such feature as "Keep Layout": http://www.actualtools.com/windowmanager/help/userinterface/opt_layout.php

 Michael,

Thanks for the quick response. I am attaching a screenshot in JPG format mid-quality (I think your forum must have a 50k size limit ... I can't read the error message on the forum). This was taken when everything was working fine with AWM 4.4 unloaded. I loaded it and right-clicked the top toolbar and it happened.

I did try what you asked (disabling the layout features), closed AWM, re-opened AWM and the problem seems to have gone away.

BTW ... I did try adding an exclusion rule for that (Explorer and Window class) and that didn't help before I did what you suggested.

Still thought I'd still include the screen shot in case you wanted to look at it.

Cheers,

Vince
