I have the same problem.

With the display PC, not the production PC though.

It was fine with the Display PC until yesterday. But today it started displaying the taskbar after the autostart of the Watchpoint 6.5.

WP goes fullscreen upon execution, but taskbar remains at the bottom.

Thank you.

When you see the task bar on WATCHOUT Display full screen mode after power up and autostart of Watchpoint 6.5, it likely means that WATCHOUT has loaded before Windows has completed starting up. Increase your start delay to avoid this.

Hi Jim,

this is happening on a display PC which I have just built and without a key. So license key warning is there.

I have increased the delay value to 10000 with no difference.

Could this be also due to the fact that I had scheduled SSD defrag for both OS and WO disks at the logon?

Also, taskbar goes away when I click at somewhere on the WO default black screen.

Any thoughts?

Increasing the start delay to such a large number likely just results in an error and no delay (check the error log on the display computer). Yes, scheduling defray at startup could definitely be the cause. Simple enough to disable it and try again.

Hi Jim,

I have set the delay value back to default value 5000. No cure.

Then disabled the defrag task. Launched WO without problems and taskbar this time.

Restarted the server a few times to make sure it worked. And nope. Same thing again.

Went into the task scheduler and disabled remaining google and amd driver update tasks and it worked fine again. For two times. Then back to good old taskbar.

I don't know where the WO error logs reside. Could you please tell me where it is located?

Thank you.

The log files are in a folder logs inside the WATCHOUT folder. If you talk about google and amd driver update tasks, are you sure that you've applied the tweaking list from A-Z??? It sounds very much like a tweaking issue where some component tries to push into the foreground pushing WO into the background.
