 Running AWM 7.5.1 I was running fine with Virtual desktops in independent mode, with 2 monitors. Then I had to move my desktop to a new location, and got two new monitors, though I only set up one initially and added the 2nd later.

Now my virtual desktops dont work. If I run in classic mode, they work fine. But if I try independent mode, then I dont have any displays defined, so I cant add desktops, remove, etc. No desktop switcher. Nothing. Tried completely uninstalling and re-installing AWM.

I suspect that the old config is stored somewhere, but I am unable to clean it out.

Any suggestions? I sent my config to tech support already.

 Hello Andrew

The configuration files for the program are stored here: %appdata%\Actual Tools\Actual Window Manager. You can try to temporarily remove them to some other folder as a backup and check if it helps.

Best regards.

 Thanks for letting me know the location.
Stopped AWM

Removed  C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Roaming\Actual Tools\Actual Window Manager\VirtualDesktops.ini file.

Restarted AWM.

Was able to rebuild my virtual desktops config.

Thanks.

-Andrew
