Automatically rearrange Spaces keeps rearranging

reopening the ticket

-whats the issue :

Automatically rearrange Spaces based on most recent use. works even its off(unchecked)

-how to reproduce the error :

on Ventura in Mission Control setting, if you uncheck mentioned option , BUT , keep the "Group windows by application" On , when you go to mission control , each time all group windows gets rearranged to a random position.

if "Group windows by application" is off though , it stops rearranging.

it seems "Group windows by application" overrule the rearrange option.,

-what solutions was tried :

updated the OS, tried the option in safeMode, both didn't fix the issue.

kindly let me and others know if there is a fix .

thanks

Mac mini 2018 or later

Hello GoodHope,

To be sure, is the issue user specific? If you do not have an alternate user you may need to create one to test with. Here's more information on that process: Change Users & Groups settings on Mac - Apple Support. If the issue is user specific it may be related to a setting or app that's installed to that profile.

To report unexpected behavior, you may need to reach out to Apple Support directly, you can reach them by clicking here: Apple Support or by calling the number most local to your region for support: Contact Apple for support and service Contact Apple for support and service - Apple Support.

Cheers!

hi

thank you , I have other user, checked it there too , here is what happens in both users :

Ventura mission control keeps the app grouping in same space , even when there are 6-7 different groups .

but when I open first microsoft app (any of outlook, oneNote,Edge) mission control grouping stars to rearrange randomly .

I have no idea if there is any carolation between microsoft and rearranging in grouped app in mission control, but it happens even when you have 3 groups and one is one of named apps .

please advise if this is something that can be sorted out , I can contact Apple Support but before that want to report the issue here . perhaps someone else has similar problem.

thanks
