Before reporting your issue

  • I have confirmed that this issue does not happen when ExplorerPatcher is not installed
  • I do not have "register as shell extension" enabled
  • I have tried my best to check existing issues

Repro ExplorerPatcher versions

ExplorerPatcher 22621.4317.67.1

Repro Windows Versions

Windows 10 22H2 19044.5371 x64

3rd party tweak software installed

None

Describe the bug

Prerequisites:

  • Have a second monitor
  • Have EP installed and running in the latest version with the default configuration (or not)

S2R:

  1. Click on a window on the second monitor (the one that's not the "Primary Display"
  2. Press Win + Alt + D (or Win + C if the corresponding EP option is enabled)

Expected outcome

The date / calendar flyout should being displayed above the clock section from the system tray.

Actual outcome

Explorer.exe is crashing and restarts

Additional info

Without EP, the date / calendar flyout is always being shown on the primary display, regardless of whether the focus is on the primary display or not. Maybe this could be a clue how to fix the crash.
