Not trying to channel Steve Ballmer's developers chant...or whatever that was...but anyway...
Following an automated reboot (after last Tuesday's patches), Windows logs me back in then proceeds to load 8 instances of every Explorer window I previously had opened.
That is, if I had 5 Explorer windows, each showing a different folder, after the reboot, I'm going to end up with at least 40 Explorer windows...
This has been happening for maybe 2 years on this one system I'm using; sometimes it does, sometimes it doesn't...I don't kow what triggers it, or how to avoid it. Or rather, I avoid it by only rebooting Windows when I have no choice after patches, or when it decides to do it on its own, despite me telling it otherwise (but that's another story).
I've never seen this on any other system, only this one instance of Windows 10, which does it consistently enough to say it's more likely to happen than not. It's on 22H2, but so are all my other physical and virtual systems.
I can't come up with the right incantation of search keywords to try to determine how widespread this might be, or what a solution might consist of.
Has anyone seen something like this?

Haven't seen that, but somehow it reminds me of the song "Non, non, rien nβa changΓ©" by Les Poppys

No, haven't never seen it.
But I do 99% of the time switch the computer off when I am not using it. I do not use the restart so much. I'll give it a check.
On the other hand, speaking about weird things...
We used a windows server in india and we logged to it using the remote desktop. After some weird situations for me and other co-workers, I realized that the windows server was sharing the clipboard with all simultaneously connected users. So if I copied something in my pc, you could paste it in yours.

That...doesn't sound right.

And it feels even less right than it sounds. It costs me a while to understand why the heck our clipboard was behaving so weird in random moments... And there is people that don't believe it, but hey...
Luckily we were a small team of 7 people in rush hour.

I have an app written in Visual C++. I can build either a 32bit version or 64 bit version.
Should I always build two versions to release or just 32 bit?

I always build two versions - debug and release, and they always use 64-bit instructions.

Or just 64-bit, if you want.
|
|
|
|
|
Do you want to access more than 3.X Gb of memory with your app? Then 64 bit all the time. Otherwise it probably doesn't matter, unless your app relies on 32 bit libraries, like the old DirectMusic API. Then 32 bit all the time.

In addition to the previous suggestions:
if your app has to run on older machines with a 32 bits operating system, it must be 32 bits.
A 32 bits version will also run on 64 bits systems (with the mentioned limit on memory access).
Another thing that might confuse you is that a C# solution can contain 32- and 64-bits projects, which might give the impression that they can be "mixed".
These projects however cannot access each other and must be run standalone.

A C++, or even a mixed, solution can also.
