Win11 issues

[hertogg]

In Win11 the desktop number is not shown in trayicon (e.g., 2/3 for 2nd from 3 desktops). Also 'pin window to all desktops' is not working.

The notification doesn’t appear either on my Win11 machine... In fact, it doesn’t seem to do anything at all.

Same here

Windows 11 seems to have own action for WIN + ALT + ARROW combination. This is my most wanted function, to move active window to another desktop.

Will there be an update to win11? This virtualdesktop manager is my favorite but doesn't seem to work on Win11. Thanks.

Try this fork: https://github.com/hwtnb/SylphyHornPlusWin11 , works fine under Windows11

@dingxy1996, tried on Windows 11 build 22000, settings not opened.

I found command line tool for manage virtual desktops - https://github.com/MScholtes/VirtualDesktop

Run compile.bat for get VirtualDesktop11.exe.

With VirtualDesktop and some custom scripts on Nodejs and Autohotkey I replaced SylphyHorn.

Move active window on Alt+Win+Left/Right:

move_window.ahk

moveWithWindowToLeft() {
    Run, c:\tools\VirtualDesktop11.exe Q GetCurrentDesktop Calc:-1 MoveActiveWindow Left, "", Hide
}
moveWithWindowToRight() {
    Run, c:\tools\VirtualDesktop11.exe Q GetCurrentDesktop Calc:1 MoveActiveWindow Right, "", Hide
}

; Win+Alt+[Left|right] - move with active window to desktop
#!Left::moveWithWindowToLeft()
#!Right::moveWithWindowToRight()

Script for set wallpapers:

wallpapers_desktops.cmd

VirtualDesktop11.exe gd:0 wp:c:\images\wallpapers\desktop\0.png
VirtualDesktop11.exe gd:1 wp:c:\images\wallpapers\desktop\1.png
VirtualDesktop11.exe gd:2 wp:c:\images\wallpapers\desktop\2.png

@popstas SylphyHornPlus works fine on my device(22000.376). It is still a beta version, so it is unstable in some cases, settings have been crashed several times in my device too, but most times it works well, maybe tried to rerun it?

[hertogg]

Thanks for notifying. This beta version indeed seems to work fine.

Request: current desktop info in tray is very small font; add option to increase or change font(size).

Hi, when I try to open the settings this warning appears and I can't open them (Windows 11 Pro Insider Preview build 22526.1000): "System.NotSupportedException: You must target Windows 10 in your app.manifest and run without debugging. in WindowsDesktop.VirtualDesktopHelper.ThrowIfNotSupported() in WindowsDesktop.VirtualDesktop.GetDesktops() in SylphyHorn.Services.SettingsService.ResizeList() in SylphyHorn.Services.HookService.Suspend() in SylphyHorn.ApplicationPreparation.g__ShowSettings|15_0() in System.Windows.Forms.MenuItem.OnClick(EventArgs e) in System.Windows.Forms.MenuItem.MenuItemData.Execute() in System.Windows.Forms.Command.Invoke() in System.Windows.Forms.NotifyIcon.WndProc(Message& msg) in System.Windows.Forms.NativeWindow.Callback(IntPtr hWnd, Int32 msg, IntPtr wparam, IntPtr lparam)"
