If I open Cubase with one project and no other windows open, I can click on the taskbar icon to bring it to the front.
If I open a second window (having the project window not in full screen or open editors or the mixer windows) Windows (the OS) is presenting a second Cubase icon.
I can set in Windows(OS) the option to group the icons always, now Windows presents just one taskbar icon, and it opens an overview of the open windows of the app if you click on it.

Mozilla Firefox, Thunderbird, Chrome, LibreOffice, Allen & Heath dLive Director in windowed mode, just to name the open apps at the moment.
All I can say is, that it is working as expected on my two systems I tested it today.
I click on the taskbar icon and the corresponding app comes to the front.

The first thing I would look at is your hardware driver. See if there is an update. If not, try using another DAW with it, if you have one installed, or switching to an alternative driver (ASIO4ALL, etc).

Now Cubase is performing a lot better and I can work on it. The problem for me now is that the Best Performance Power Plan has my laptop running hot all the time. The fan is running constantly to cool it. It seems that Windows 11 is a real resource drainer on my system.

I upgraded to win 11 on two machines. No problems on either. Both cubase and cakewalk run fine.
I updated my motu m4 driver and my Nvidia display driver, and made sure to disable any other audio drivers in device manager.
All good here.

At first, i followed the dante instructions for routing. In dante controller, I sent the first 4 transmits from the computer to the 4 receives on the eventide and the first 4 receives on the computer to the first four transmits on the eventide. You cant send the wrong thing to each other in dante controller so the problem cant be there.

In the eventide in direct connection i sent two channels from analog to dante A and then two channels from dante A to analog. So i could have a stereo pair of records and monitor playback from cubase. This seemed to just work when using adat or usb but doesnt seem to work for me with dante.

The first thing i noticed when opening cubase 10 is that i got terrible digital feedback until either i severed the connection in direct connection or unsubscribed the transmit from the eventide to the receive of the computer. I had dante rx 1 and 2 and dante tx 1 and 2 as stereo ins and outs in cubase and got feedback as i said until i made the disconnect listed above.

What should i be doing to use the eventide and its dante card to get sound in and out of my computer properly? What ive done so far doesnt seem to be working. I feel like an idiot because in a lot of videos online, dante seems easy to setup and just work.

Thanks for the update. I had ruled out clocking issues based on your description of the digital feedback noise, since in my experience, clocking problems with Dante just cause clicks and pops, and it's good to know that isn't always the case.
