Microsoft PowerToys version

0.68.1

Installation method

PowerToys auto-update

Running as admin

Yes

Area(s) with issue?

FancyZones

Steps to reproduce

  1. Change the default layout to Columns.
    image
  2. Let computer go to sleep.
  3. Wake computer
  4. Layout is set to Priority Grid

Launching the layout editor opens with the expected layout, but it does not take affect even after reselecting the Columns layout. The only way I've found to get back to the Column layout is to use the task manager to end the PowerToys.Runner process and restart it.

✔️ Expected Behavior

Default layout to be used when computer wakes.

❌ Actual Behavior

Priority Grid layout is used.

hmm, didn't get a notification for this. Anyway, found out some more info. When this issue occurs, I see multiple Power Toys icons in the system tray icon area. If I exit one, all (three) go away and restarting Power Toys resumes working. I'm pretty sure I tried this before, but I don't recall seeing multiple Power Toys icons in that case.

As an update to what I mentioned in my last update. It looks like usually there is only one Power Toys icon in the system tray area and exiting that and restarting Power Toys gets it back to the normal state.

The workaround is easier than what I originally described, but still annoying to have to do that every time you wake up the computer.

Hi. I have the same experience exactly, and I've attached a bug report as well. 3 actually, because I only just learned that clicking Bug Report wasn't automatically sending something to you. :)
Version v0.69.1
Hope this helps. LOVE PowerToys!

No, I don't think this is still an issue.

This is still an issue. I am getting this on 0.87.1.

I have to open FancyZones layout editor to make it respect my defaults I have set.
