Hi,
today, I've done an upgrade of a test machine from Windows 10 1909 (x86) to Windows 10 2004 (x86).
After the upgrade, windows apps (Settings, Store, Edge, ...) close immediately if AWM 8.14.3 is running. If it's paused, the apps will open normally.
Kind regards

Hello, Max
Thank you for contacting us.
We were unable to reproduce the problem on our computers with the standard AWM settings.
Could you send us your AWM configuration files using the Send to Tech Support tool (AWM configuration module > Tools > Configuration > Send to Tech Support)? Change the "To..." address to bogdan@actualtools.com and add a link to this topic in the email.
Also please specify the exact number of your Windows build (type winver in the Search field of the Windows Start menu, press Enter. The Window containing the build number will appear).
Best regards.

Hi Bogdan,
since this is a test VM:
Do I completely reset to default configuration by
deleting the contents of "C:\Users\Username\AppData\Roaming\Actual Tools\Actual Window Manager"
deleting the contents of "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Actual Tools"
If yes, the problem happens here with default configuration. [I've tried this...]
It happens if any titlebar button is active. If I disable all titlebar buttons, Windows Apps will work as expected.
Did you test on a x86 system? Do I have chances, that it'll work on x64??

Just to add: If I add an exception for "c:\Windows\System32\applicationframehost.exe", apps will also start working again (but also won't have all the nice features of AWM).

As we can see, the problem doesn't persist on the x64 version.
Also, the most of the Windows apps don't close if you open them first, and then start Actual Window Manager. Maybe, this will be helpful for you.
Best regards.

Hi Bogdan,
thank you for testing and confirming.
I can confirm from my side, that this problem does not occur here on a VM I've just setup with Win 10 2004.
Actually this isn't a huge problem on my side. I've just a VM with the programs I commonly use to test upgrades before upgrading my live system.
I admit testing on x86 and then using x64 may not identify all problems. But x86 VMs use less resources and I didn't take the time until now to set up an x64 VM.
I'll use the x64 VM in future...
So thank you for trying to fix the issue.
But I'd be more interested in seeing as it happens also on my live system.

I'm glad to notify you that the subject issue has been fixed and the fix is available in and our other products as well.
You can update your program to the latest version (program's tray icon context menu > Info > Check for Updates) or download the latest version manually, install it and confirm the fix.
Best regards.
