  1. Virtual desktop page disappears almost immediately when the taskbar is on top


    Hi,I usually put my taskbar on top of the window and it worked well until recent Windows update, 21H1 cumulative updatemaybe KB5005033?. After that update it seems virtual desktop icon doesn't work like before.When I click the virtual desktop icon and move mouse cursor a little the virtual desktop page disappears almost immediately as such I can't select another desktop or move specific application to a desired desktop.When I move taskbar to the bottom the virtual desktop icon works as expected.Is this a bug newly introduced in the update? Or how can I fix it?Thanks in advance,

    :)

    Major Taskbar/Virtual Desktop Bug

    I have given up on Microsoft fixing this issue, clearly a major problem for anyone who uses the virtual desktop feature (obviously the folks at MS don't).

    Fortunately, there is a fix for this. Look for "taskbar tweaker". It's free. Once installed, right click on the tray icon and select advanced options. Scroll down the list and look for "virtual desktop order fix" and change that to 1.

    This fixes the issues of taskbar icons moving when switching between desktops!

    Click +Desktop to add Virtual Desktop

    Hover your mouse to Desktop1 to show list of open Windows

    Drag and drop each Windows to target virtual desktop

  4. Virtual desktop page disappears almost immediately when the taskbar is on top

    Different taskbar for different virtual desktops.

    I have a issue with virtual desktops in Windows 10. When I use virtual desktops, there is a single taskbar that is shared between all of them, for eg : say I have Task Manager open on "virtual desktop 1" and Windows explorer on "virtual desktop 2" and I
    am currently on "virtual desktop 1", then in taskbar I see both Explorer and Manager open whereas on "virtual desktop 1" I can only use Task Manager.

    The problem with this is that when I have multiple programs and many different Chrome windows open on different virtual desktops, the taskbar gets cluttered and almost defeats the purpose of multiple desktops.

    So what I want is different "local" taskbar for each virtual desktop - like if I have Task Manager on virtual desktop 1, then I should only be able to see that in my taskbar when I am using that desktop. Is this possible ?

    Sorry for my bad English Virtual desktop page disappears almost immediately when the taskbar is on top :)).
