3 weeks ago Wooow!
I have fixed several positioning issues related to preview panes, planned to be released in 0.84.0: https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/pull/34035
However this is is super weird since implies that the process is started without arguments 😮

2 weeks ago Yes, Weird indeed. Is there an eta for the 0.84.0 release? I've had some more of the same popups today & did a couple of tests. I don't know how relevant it is but there seems to be some link between minimising Windows Explorer whilst a preview of the gcode thumbnail is currently being displayed. It doesn't happen every time but when it does it seems to coincide with that action

2 weeks ago 0.84.0 should be released early in September, but no ETA yet.
Minimize/Restore the Explorer window is certainly a repro for some issues (you can find more details on my PR checklist https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/pull/34035). Are you able to reproduce with some consistency also the "wrong number of args" error?

2 weeks ago Hi. Thanks for the info. The issue doesn't happen every time I minimise Explorer but it's pretty regular. say 8 out of 10 times. I can't identify if there are any other contributing factors or open windows that affect the frequency. I thought it might be related to multiple instances of Windows Explorer being open or some conflict with the Chrome browser but that doesn't seem to be the case. The only common thing that's triggering the issue is minimising the Explorer window whilst previewing a gcode thumbnail regardless of whether there is a window behind the Explorer window when minimised of if it just reveals the Windows Desktop
