Did you ever try with the regular AmuletUsb version on Windows 10?

I haven't tried before.
Now I tried it - and it worked after replugging the dongle.
Seems, there's something wrong with Win10 version from the extras.

For this particular problem, it definitely works better.
As for other possible problems, I think time will tell.

Yes, I was using the .exe with Win10 in the name.
Does the version for Win7 correctly reconnects when unplugging and re-plugging the USB dongle?

Interesting, this versions seems to work as expected when USB dongle reconnects.
I see that the version number differs a little from the one in the VoxCommandoExtras.zip.
Is it possible that you didn't upload the latest version to the site?

Ok, I will try to take a look at it, given the code.
Guess, it's a very niche problem.

What happens when AmuletUsb(Win10) is running, but Amulet HID disconnect and reconnects for some reason (power management, hub issue, etc.)?
I noticed that sometimes AmuletUsb loses the device and never regains it, possibly due to HID reconnect.
Is it possible to reconnect to the device in this case automatically (without restarting the program)?

Ok, James, thanks!
I'm glad you found a solution.
Was I a little pushy? Didn't mean it.

The important part was closing the window.
Hiding it from task list - just for the most unintrusive OSD window.

Ok, I don't insist. Closing OSD window is good enough.
But for completeness, there is a thread at stackoverflow about this with several solutions:

@igvk, I don't have the OSD Window show up under Task Switcher(Alt+Tab) with the newest version 2.2.3.8 (windows 10)

You don't have it in Alt-Tab window list when OSD shown on screen (or when closed)?

That's really great news!
Is it also possible to make OSD window hidden from task switcher (Alt-Tab)? Or is there a reason to keep it there?

Yes, it was it.
System installation of IronPython broke this function in VC.
After uninstall everything is ok.

I think it's possible that some environment (like installed versions of Python in the system) affect this error.

Can it be so? I thought that VC had self-contained version that shouldn't depend on others.
But I'll try to uninstall other them, to be sure.

I tried the latest stable and beta version of VC (2.2.3.7). The result is the same.

I tried to execute the simplest code like: "result=5+5".

Yes, the DLLs are original.
I also tried to substitute IronPython.* and Microsoft.* DLLs from a newer IronPython version, but it didn't solve the problem.

When I wrote about reinitializing, I meant the command "Reinitialize Python" form the PY plugin menu.

Hi,
I tried to use PY plugin under WIn10x64, but it doesn't seem to initialize correctly.
It throws the following error when trying to execute command:
Action from plugin: C:\VoxCommando\Plugins\PY\PY.dll
Action ERROR: System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
   at vcPlugin.iPy.execString(String strCode)
   at vcPlugin.Plugin.doAction(String[] parsedActions, String[] parsedParams)
And the following while reinitializing:
System.Reflection.TargetInvocationException: Failed to load language 'IronPython 2.7.5': Method not found: 'System.Collections.Generic.IEnumerable`1<!!0> Microsoft.Scripting.Utils.ReflectionUtils.GetCustomAttributes(System.Reflection.Assembly, Boolean)'. ---> System.MissingMethodException: Method not found: 'System.Collections.Generic.IEnumerable`1<!!0> Microsoft.Scripting.Utils.ReflectionUtils.GetCustomAttributes(System.Reflection.Assembly, Boolean)'.

Besides - is it possible to replace IronPytnon libraries with newer ones, will they be compatible?

There are windows, that do not steal focus.
And, won't it be better to have an option to close it?

Is that it's present in Alt-Tab also by design? Seems a little inconvenient to me.

I noticed that the OSD window (at least under Windows 10) is always visible when Alt-Tabbing, even it's not shown on the screen already.
Is it possible to hide it from the list of visible windows?

Besides, it breaks full screen exclusive mode of madVR video renderer - it thinks that some application draws foreground window and never switches to exclusive mode.
Perhaps, it's better to close OSD when it's not shown?
And if I close this window by hand, OSD will be never shown again.
