Windows 11 (25H2) (26200.8037)

Monitor 1 - 2560x1440 - Main-
Monitor 2 - 1920x1080 - Aux - this is the monitor the task bar is being disabled on.

I'm not sure what is causing it, possibly alt-tabbing. ]]> RE: Discord badges not showing up on taskbar https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/discord-badges-not-showing-up-on-taskbar/?ID=176ab4e5-80cc-42d2-b738-c6d377820e36#13 Fri, 10 Apr 2026 20:33:59 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/discord-badges-not-showing-up-on-taskbar/?ID=176ab4e5-80cc-42d2-b738-c6d377820e36#13 DisplayFusion Seems to be fixed in 12.1-Beta2. ]]> RE: DF-v12.1 Beta 1 - DF Taskbar items are solid white and do not follow system theme, when set to "Never Combine".

And it seems this also fixed the Discord badge issue (https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/discord-badges-not-showing-up-on-taskbar/?ID=176ab4e5-80cc-42d2-b738-c6d377820e36). ]]> RE: DF 12.1 (beta 1) blank screen saver not working https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/df-121-beta-1-blank-screen-saver-not-working/?ID=019d748c-66b2-74d3-b5af-e5a3d8dc56b8#4 Fri, 10 Apr 2026 18:56:14 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/df-121-beta-1-blank-screen-saver-not-working/?ID=019d748c-66b2-74d3-b5af-e5a3d8dc56b8#4 DisplayFusion In a similar issue ... my screensaver (ribbons) is kicking in as usual (spanning monitors) but wiggling the mouse or tapping the spacebar won't turn it off. I'm only able to "break out" of the screensaver by hitting Ctl-Alt-Del, which brings up the Windows lock/switch user/etc. screen and then I can ESC out of that to get back into my desktop. This is with 12.1 beta 1 on Win 11 (25H2 26200.8117).

edit: gah, I see Beta 2 just came out and this is mentioned. Will upgrade. :)

edit #2: yep, that fixed it. Nothing to see here, please move along ... ]]> RE: DF-v12.1 Beta 1 - DF Taskbar items are solid white and do not follow system theme, when set to "Never Combine".

  • When installing CheckCentral as an "app" through Edge, it will now go straight to your Dashboard when launched.
  • External Ticketing: Autotask: Added the ability to have Autotask mark checks as success on ticket close by using Extension Callouts. Configuration instructions are in the bottom of the Autotask ticketing channel edit window in CheckCentral.

I then ran the Troubleshoot Compatibility wizard and it made some changes (incl one I had tried before: run as administrator) and now it's running.

For now.

Let's hope this works for good!
