Forums -> UltraMon™ -> Random Move Window Button on Desktop?

Hi guys, i am using the free trial of Ultramon and am liking it so far, but there is a really annoying thing happening.

Right in the middle of the monitor is a floating move window button. When I hit it, it goes to my second monitor and vice versa.

Is it just some weird setting I accidentally enabled? It doesn't seem to do anything and there seems to be no way to remove it.

I would hate to have to stop using ultramon because of this, but it is very annoying and I can't overlook it.

Any help would be appreciated.

You could get this if an application creates a window which shouldn't be visible, but UltraMon thinks it's a regular application window.

Please run EnumWndBtns.exe and post the generated log here or send it to support@realtimesoft.com, this will show to what windows UltraMon has added buttons.

Thanks for the log, the problem is the Acer Hotkey Utility, another customer had the same issue.

To fix this, go to UltraMon Options > Compatibility, then configure custom settings for the Acer Hotkey Utility, C:\Program Files (x86)\Acer\Hotkey Utility\HotkeyUtility.exe, and disable window buttons for the application.
