SUMMARY

if I change virtual desktop (work area) the process manager doesn't show me the icon of the programs opened in the previous virtual desktop, the strange thing and that the option to show only the icons in the desktop in use is not checked, must be a bug!

Oh!

The default behavior of the Task Manager changed recently so that now it only shows windows open in the current virtual desktop. If you don't like this, you can change it back!

Right-click on panel or task manager > Configure Task Manager > uncheck "Show only windows from this virtual desktop"

That will bring back the old behavior that you liked better.
