Menu icon clicking bug when using Windows App (remote desktop)

I run EasyMorph Desktop 5.9.8.17 on a Windows Server 2016 VM and access it from a Mac Studio using Windows App (formerly Microsoft Remote Desktop).

For the past few months (I’m not sure exactly when it started), I’ve encountered an issue when EasyMorph Desktop has multiple projects open for an extended period (days or weeks). Certain menu items stop responding to clicks, specifically those under Main, Project, Design, and Report. For example, actions such as Undo and Run All Actions no longer work.

The UI still appears responsive:

  • Menu items highlight on hover.
  • The darker click highlight appears when selected.
  • However, the menu commands do not execute.

At the same time, other areas of the application continue to function normally, including:

  • Add Data
  • Start menu items
  • About menu items
  • Critically - all items in the main tables view still work - I can right click to run actions, copy tables, rename, minimize, etc.

The Windows App client is fully up to date on the Mac. Disconnecting and reconnecting to the VM, or quitting and reopening Windows App, does not resolve the issue.

The only workaround I’ve found is to close all open projects in EasyMorph Desktop and then reopen them. I do not need to quit EasyMorph Launcher—only EasyMorph Desktop.

I have a screen recording that demonstrates the issue. The recording contains actual project data, so I would prefer not to post it publicly. If a member of the EasyMorph team would like to review it, I’d be happy to send it directly via email.

@Michael_Stonacek, thank you for the detailed report. Please send the screen recording along with the debug logs (located by default at "C:\Users<username>\AppData\Local\EasyMorph\Debug Logs") to support@easymorph.com.
