Plots Output Goes to Wrong User

[ejolson]

I agree, it’s very weird.

After reading the thread

Why does Plots require firewall access? (gksqt)

I recently installed Julia on my Windows 10 machine using the given installer, opened cmd, then julia, added Plots package then did the following: using Plots gr() plot(1:10) A firewall permission message appeared asking if I’d grant permission to gksqt (which I’m sure is the gr plot window manager thing), but why does it ask for it? The plot is shown with no error even if I don’t answer the firewall prompt. [image]

I’m starting to think the graphics output window appearing on the wrong user’s desktop is related to the design of using network sockets.

Is it possible some sort of gksqt security token is disabled in my setup? As these are multi-user systems I’m trying to figure out what to do next.
