Windows 10: Virtual Desktop Changing Unwanted

While away from my desktop, the virtual desktop will change from the main desktop (1) to my secondary desktop (2)


Ill leave it on desktop 1 when i leave for work and come back to desktop 2, nothing will be running on desktop 2 but ill come back and it will be showing my main desktop without my wanting it to.


Is there a fix to this?

Virtual desktops

In the article you linked it says talks about 4 goals Microsoft has with virtual desktops:

• Give you more desktop space to group related windows
• Help you quickly locate and switch to any window or group of windows
• Let you easily re-organize your groups and move windows as tasks evolve
• Keep you in control of the degree of separation between your grouped windows

Not being able to control what desktop the program opens on really doesn't fit in with these goals.

Give me one good reason for why it is suppose force me to change virtual desktop when I open a program, just one good reason and I will consider to drop the issue. To me this sounds like virtual desktops isn't ready yet and you refuse to acknowledge that
there are bugs, because this makes it very hard to work with multiply virtual desktops.

Modifying the settings of a virtual desktop requires complex steps. Because of this, we might need to refer you to our Microsoft TechNet forums for further assistance. For us to direct you to the correct forum category, we would need the answers to the following:

If you are using Hyper-V, you can use this article published
