 So I updated Google Chrome to latest Version 78.0.3904.70 (Official Build) (64-bit), and all of a sudden Actual Window Manager stopped working. Please help.

 I can confirm this, using Actual Window Rollup version 8.14.1 and Chrome Version 78.0.3904.70 (Official Build) (64-bit) on Windows 10 version 1903.

 Hello, gentlemen

Thank you for contacting us.

I was unable to reproduce the problem. As I can see the version 8.14.1 of our programs works with the latest version of Chrome.

Do you mean Chrome window is not affected at all i.e. there are no Actual Tools title buttons or extra window menu items? Other Actual Tools features don't work either? I mean Desktop Divider or hotkeys?

Does Chrome start in usual mode or with the elevated rights (the UAC popup window appears when you start Chrome)?

Is Window Caption criterion in Target Window section of specific settings for Chrome set to "Substring match" and has the "Google Chrome" value (Actual Tools product's configuration module > Window Settings > Specific Settings > specific settings for Chrome > Target Window)?


Best regards.

There are no title buttons or extra window menu items whatsoever. Hot keys do not work either.

Usual mode, non-admin.

 Hello, Mojo

This problem has been confirmed. The latest version of Chrome is not affected by Actual Tools programs if Actual Tools program is installed with disabled option "Support system utilities and administrative tools". This problem is due to some changes in Chrome, we'll try to fix it. For now you can reinstall the program and enable the mentioned option during the installation.


Best regards.

 I've reinstalled with the above directions and Chrome now has the roll-up button in the title bar.

Thank you  :D

 loomes,

We can confirm that, as you stated in this topic, this problem doesn't persist in the latest version of Vivaldi 2.9.1705.41 (Stable channel), and our software works correctly with this version.


Best regards.
