Also if you choose to show the quick access toolbar below the ribbon and then change it back,

It shows up on the first tab when you have 2 tabs open and you can't get rid of it until a PC reboot.

I'm having the same bug as jrolson. This only happens with 1.16. I use Windows 10 V1803, OS build 17134.81.

After a reboot you no longer have the issue?

Correct, after the reboot it goes away but comes back if you repeat the steps again.

Those of you with the issue with the explorer windows, did you uninstall, reboot and then install Groupy 1.16 or just install Groupy 1.16 on top of an existing installation.

If not could you try uninstalling Groupy, rebooting and then installing Groupy 1.16 and see if the issue continues as it does not reproduce here.

I did the uninstall then install originally.

Now did the 2nd re-install and all issues are resolved. Very strange... :S

 

Edit: Issues came back again...  :(

After re-install the yellow tools tab was hidden, 5-10 minutes later and it's back again...

If I turn off Groupy through its control panel and then turn it back on, the issues go away until I close, wait a while, and then reopen an explorer window which then the issues are back again.

 

It's almost like some Groupy settings are not sticking, or Windows is overriding them after a set period of time...

Think I found another bug.

If tabs in "always place above" mode + disabling "tab bar should extend to full window width" + turn off the 3 dot button.

Results in the new tab button losing its grey background while still having its gradient inner shadow.

Before,

After turning off the 3 dot button,

From my observation, the aforementioned bugs save for the last one jrolson mentioned don't happen the first time File Explorer is opened after restarting or turning on the PC. Once I close and re-open Explorer or open a folder afterward, the bugs reappear.

When Groupy groups the second Tab in Word or Excel it looks like the picture. When i reduce the windows-size, everything will be ok.
