I have an issue where Aida64 Extreme interferes with the Desktop Windows 10.

[Chris Swann]

I know it's Aida64 because if I close the program down the problem stops. 

The problems occurs when I right click anything to do with the desktop. So, an example, if I create a new folder on the desktop, the new folder icon normally automatically allows me to rename it. However when Aida64 is running it only allows me to type for a few seconds. It’s like someone is clicking off of the icon to cancel the renaming,

I use Aida for the sensor panel.

I have tried several things. I have uninstalled Aida64 and them reinstalled it. I have rolled back to a previous version and the problem is still there.

That is caused by the always-on-top SensorPanel setting.  When you press a right-click on Windows Desktop, Windows 10 (for whatever reason) take away the always-on-top state of the SensorPanel window.  AIDA64 will then regularly have to check if the always-on-top setting is still enabled for the SensorPanel; and when it's no longer enabled, it will reclaim it.  That's when Windows 10 (again, for some mysterious reason) hides the right-click context menu.  Other than making the check for always-on-top setting less frequent, we couldn't find a workaround for this issue so far

 Can you make a setting for us that so we can  make it less frequent ? Or is there a setting that I can change already? It really annoys me.

I have this issue in Windows 11 when sensor panel is set to appear on top.

Any new info on a fix or work-around?
