Wonderful news! I am having a hard time quantifying the difference with the new fix.

Does this latest tweak also apply to Windows 7, or must we be running on Windows 8.1 or later to see the effect?

Apologies in advance for "nerding" you guys on this one, but I run Deskscapes across all sorts of different multiple monitor and single/multi-gpu test configurations, so I guess I am looking for a slightly more technical description, vis a vis a change in threading, or caching, or DirectX calls, or some such.

It should just address the one reported issue with high cpu in a second explorer instance.
