ProppFrexx Won’t Close When Using a Group Container on a Second Monitor

I have a Group Container on the second monitor of my computer. Since yesterday, ProppFrexx has been refusing to close. However, if I remove all windows from the Group Container, ProppFrexx closes normally.

I have deleted the settings from `C:\Users\John\AppData\Roaming\radio42\ProppFrexx ONAIR\4.0\` and reconfigured everything from scratch. However, the problem persists.

As soon as I place two or more windows in a Group Container on the second monitor, ProppFrexx refuses to close.

Is there a solution to this problem?

I can not reproduce the issue.
Maybe there is something else broken, which I can not reproduce.

Have you tried resetting the layout, eg. by deleting the *.layout files in the ProppFrexx AppUserData folder?

Can you after such cleanup clearly reproduce the issue?
If yes, please describe exactly the steps.

Here is what I did. I deleted all the layout files for the user.

I then created a Group Container on the second monitor and added the Standby Players and the Mixer to it.

After that, ProppFrexx no longer closes when I try to exit the application. Nothing happens.

If I remove either the Standby Players or the Mixer from the Group Container, everything works as expected and ProppFrexx closes normally.

So you are using UAC?!
Please also post your rights for that User…

I did another test. I created a new user (John2) and assigned the same permissions (Standard Operator). ProppFrexx still refuses to close when I place the Standby Players and the Mixer inside a Group Container on the second screen, even with this new user.

I mean the rights (not the user settings) of the „Standard Operator“.

I haven’t tested the UAC case yet, will do later…

See screenshots below. I also tested with an admin account. Same results.

Okay - I’ll test it later myself using UAC.

Additional information: I also tested it on another computer, and the results were the same. Therefore, I don't think the issue is specific to a particular computer.
