I used to be able to group Messenger app (the one from the Windows store) with other programs, but now, for some reason it doesn't work. I've tried restarting but it still doesn't work.
Hello,Sorry to hear you are having issues. Need to know more on your system.
I am running Groupy V1.49.1 and on Windows V20H2 (OS Build 19042.1052), but, I can group it.

Hi, I'm running on the same versions as you:
Windows Version 20H2 (OS Build 19042.1052)Groupy Version 1.49.1
It the issue happening while trying to group Messanger with any application such as Windows explorer or notepad? Have you tried uninstalling and reinstalling Messenger?
Thank you,

I only remember trying it on Chrome, Discord, and Steam.
However, I uninstalled and reinstalled Messenger and it now seems to be working. I then went ahead to turn off hardware acceleration, then afterwards the problem goes back. I tried uninstalling it then downloading it again from Windows Store, yet it keeps getting an error, so I opted to just download it straight from the web. This time, the problem is gone whether or not hardware acceleration is on.
Great, so the issue is solve.
I am having the same issue. Have tried uninstalling/reinstalling. No luck. Any ideas?
Which version of Messenger you're using? Download direct from the Website seem working. The one from the Windows Store don't work.
Same issue here. I tried uninstall and install one from the web. No luck.
Windows: 20H2 (OS Build 19042.1348)
Groupy: 1.5
Again, I am asking the same question. Which version of Messenger you're using? Download direct from the Website seem working. The one from the Windows Store don't work.
I wrote that I removed app store version and install one direct from the website. No luck.
Thank You
I wonder if your issue only on Windows Messenger? Any other application not grouping?
I am having the same issue.
I have windows 11 version 21H2 OS build 22000.708.

Hello,Sorry to hear you are having issues. I believe you're running preview version of Windows which is not supported.
ThanksBasj,Stardock Community Assistant.
This is not about W11, this is about you do not support this app, read pls https://forums.stardock.com/508911/page/1/
Okay, I understand, but as I mentioned there.
Hi, just bumping this post as it's still an issue. I'm on the trial version and considering buying, but if messenger won't work I probably won't buy

Thanks again.

Hello,
I just checked and the current version of Messenger no longer work with Groupy. Seem like they are moving away from Windows standard titlebar. Which cannot work with Groupy. When I first post on this thread, reply#1 in July 2021, my guess is, Messenger was still using Standard titlebar back then.
it cannot work with groupy right now but is groupy still under active development?
I believe, there will be new update/upgrade for Groupy, but, I can not tell you when it will be release.
Is it possible to get this working if we can find an old version of messenger somewhere? Or has FB blocked that?
I'm also thinking to buy, but only if it's going to work with Messenger...
To answer my own question, yes, if you're ok with running a very old version (97.11.116) then you can get grouping back working
Edit: Oh nope, it will auto update - so that's no good
Same issue here. Bought Groupy, and didn't think I would run into this issue.
Windows version 22H2
Messenger version 1720.28.215.0
