Bruh! You're a developer debug it yourself 😂

Do you receive app names for other apps?

Because the issue that I face is that I never ever receive any app name in the flyout.

Yes I do

The bug that I face might be different, since I don't receive app names for any of the media app.

Yes, I have the same problem.

weird but as of the latest update to ModernFlyouts and after an in-app reset, i don't have this issue anymore?

How is that even possible?

I didn't do anything to fix that bug!

How could it fix itself?

It just doesn't show the words "Microsoft edge" and Microsoft Edge's icon. Others, such as background images and video covers, are normal.

This is the reason #140 (comment).

Not only MS Edge, Chrome (and other Chromium based browsers) and Firefox are affected by this but all Win32 apps (unpackaged) are affected.
#230 (comment)
foobar2000 (Store version) v1.5.1 must be a packaged desktop app so it's not affected.

Thers's nothing we can do. This is a bug in the OS. They won't fix it anytime soon. We have to live with this.

@Samuel12321, should we submit a bug report on FeedbackHub so that MS employees get to know of this bug?

Would they even care about this?

I'm pretty sure that this issue didn't occur on 20H2 (that's why I didn't care LOL). It's now happening to me (sed lyp) on Windows 10 Insider Preview Build 20262 (Dev Channel).

So, there is a good chance that they will fix this bug before 21H1.

@Poopooracoocoo,

but I'm on Windows 10 20H2?

Well it didn't happen to me.

Microsoft never fixes anything. >.>

That's sad 😢. But we should at least try..... They won't fix it if they don't it exists! That's what I'm saying.

@ShankarBUS, worth a try.
We should probably have on the readme or somewhere a list of and a link to all the bugs we have reported to Microsoft and ask people to up vote them. The more votes the more likely they will be fixed.

Is this problem solved? The store has pushed version 0.8.4, and Microsoft edge has been displayed normally.

@fxzxmicah,

No? I don't remember fixing anything 😅. It must have fixed itself. What Windows 10 version are you on?

P.S.

Cyberpunk 2077 Review by IGN? I saw that in the morning too! 🤜🤛

20H2 build 19042.630

This could be potentially fixed by migration to the INowPlayingSessionManager #29 (comment).

Stay tuned!

- Made SourceAppInfo APIs more inclusive. This will reduce the work burden while adding AudioSession APIs (backed by either NAudio's CoreAudioApi or part of EarTrumpet's source code).
- Made the app fetching procedures more precise.
- Fixed #184 - Bug: Win32 apps' information are not shown in the media session controls
- Refined modern apps' icon fetching. Now, it'll sure fetch atleast any one of the apps' icons
