What's new in this version:
Actual Window Manager 8.14.5
- Overall system load is reduced
- Windows 10 Insider x64 build 21277+: The program crashed at startup
- Licensing: The evaluation period is prolonged by a third of its original
duration for the update versions released after the Free Updates Subscription expiration date
- Mirroring: Ability is added to flip the mirrored content both horizontally and vertically (except the window-to-window hardware accelerated mirrors)
- Window Actions: Ability is added to insert explicit delays into combo action sequences
Note: The ability to specify a delay for the Run Keyboard Macro combo items
has been removed; all existing such items will be converted automatically
to a separate Run Keyboard Macro item and explicit Delay item.
- Title Buttons: Ability is added to specify a name for custom Run Keyboard Macro buttons
- Per-application Audio Device Switcher: Sound switching now works in Chromium-based Microsoft Edge
- File Folders: Favorite Folders now support Unicode symbols
- An invalid memory operation could cause cascading errors in the Control Center at its startup if the "Collect usage statistics" option was enabled
- Some application windows (e.g. Directory Opus) stopped reacting on Control Center commands (like pausing/resuming or modifying the settings)
Tabbed Explorer: Numerous fixes:
- overall system load is reduced
- container window sometimes did not come in front after being activated
by a mouse click
- container window did not retain the Always-on-Top state
- container window's title bar flashed on switching tabs
- Actual Taskbar, Mouse Actions: Creating a custom mouse action assigned to
taskbar button left double click with no modifiers blocked single clicks
and therefore prevented normal taskbar operations, such as window
activation, minimization/restoration, etc.
- Virtual Desktops: Virtual Desktop Switcher displayed above screen saver
if the program was installed with the enabled "Support system utilities and
administrative tools" option.
Virtual Desktops: Numerous fixes for the Independent mode:
- Control Center might crash upon unloading or turning off a secondary
monitor
- the "Virtual Desktops" submenu in the notification area icon's context
menu showed the lists of desktops for the monitors currently turned off;
the same was true for a context menu of the Move to Virtual Desktop
title button and the system window menu's submenu
- at startup, Virtual Desktop Switchers from different monitors
might appear on the same monitor in certain desktop configurations
- Virtual Desktop Switchers from secondary monitors moved to a primary
monitor instead of hiding after turning off their host monitor
- Virtual Desktop Switchers did not update their position after changing
taskbar position/size
- Window Layout: In some cases statistics data could be flooded with erroneous
events
- Window Actions: The Run Keyboard Macro action forced its target window
remain foreground, which was inappropriate if a macro's purpose presumed
another window activation (especially when the action was activated by
any means other than "At Window Startup").
- Window Actions: Minimize-to-Screen floating icons placed at the right/bottom
edge of a monitor might get out of sight after reducing the monitor's
resolution.
- Configuration, Desktop Profiles: The "Preview" button did not work if the
"Current Windows screen saver" option was selected
Actual Window Manager 8.14.4
New:
- Internal security has been accurately revised and tightened to follow the principle of least privilege (in particular, for kernel objects used for inter-process communication)
- Internal error handling has been revised and improved for better interoperability with apps using .NET runtime (and probably some other frameworks)
- Internal handling of display-related information has been optimized to reduce the overall delay after changing the desktop geometry (i.e. attaching/detaching a monitor or changing a monitor resolution)
- Window Settings: The ability is added to apply window settings to such system pop-up windows as Action Center, Volume Mixer, Network, and tray notifications
Virtual Desktops: The ability is added to customize floating Virtual Desktop Switcher windows on-the-fly via context menu. The following features can be toggled:
- "on top" state

- resizable frame
- Selected options are remembered independently per each monitor
The context menu can be invoked by the following means:

Changed:
- Actual Taskbar: Compatibility with Open-Shell Start Menu is restored

- Actual Taskbar, Windows 10 build 19041+: The Network window stopped moving to secondary monitors after clicking the Network icon in a secondary taskbar's notification area.
- Mouse: Moving a mouse (either freely or holding the left button pressed) imposed unwanted CPU consumption if the "Tight monitor boundaries" option was off.
- Mouse, Windows 7+ x64: If a 32-bit app that installs system-wide mouse hook
was launched after Actual Window Manager then clicking the right mouse button in any 64-bit console app's window (Command Prompt, Power Shell, etc.) made ActualWindowManagerCenter.exe "run away", therefore hogging the CPU heavily
- Virtual Desktops: Oracle VM VirtualBox's guest OS window stopped receiving mouse/keyboard input after switching virtual desktops

- Mouse: The "Activate window on mouse hover" feature stopped working after connecting to an already opened user session via Remote Desktop
- Window Actions, Mouse: Custom mouse action "Move to monitor - Having mouse pointer" could be applied only once to a certain window
- Window Actions, Mouse: In some cases, "Maximize horizontally" or "Maximize vertically" mouse actions did not work as expected on their first call

- Window Actions: Windows of Mozilla-based apps (Firefox, Thunderbird, Pale Moon, etc.) could not be resized by dragging their right/bottom border if they were stretched or snapped to a right/bottom boundary of a monitor
Window Actions: The following bugs are fixed in the "Move to" helper dialog:
- dialog was twice as large on monitors with higher DPI resolution
- when dragging a window preview, you could not align it using the Aero
Snap feature if the native Aero Snap was enabled in the system
- when a green alignment dot was hovered by a mouse, the desktop preview window that shows the dot's corresponding target location was slightly bigger than required and so might go beyond monitor's visible area
- Window Actions: Minimize-to-Screen floating icon could be dragged just once if the "Use double click" option was set in the window settings

Clipboard History: Some improvements are introduced:
- now it's possible to paste a formatted text entry as plain text either by pressing Ctrl-Enter or by using the "Paste text only" command in the context menu (this command has replaced the "Clear text formatting" command). Pasting as plain text does not modify the contents of the original entry

- Multi-monitor Background, Slideshow Screen Saver: The "shrink to fit" mode is added to the "Wallpaper position" option. For images larger than their host monitor, it works the same as the "proportional stretch" mode, whereas the images smaller than the host monitor are shown as is in the center of the monitor

hiding/showing them by switching to another virtual desktop and back, thumbnail previews got empty for hidden windows (located on inactive
desktops)
