Question

Message "Switch call to this device" keeps popping up in the desktop app

Account type: US

Desktop version: 9.4.3-29474


I started having this issue in the last week. After a call ends, I get a green button in the RingCentral for Windows desktop application asking if I want to switch call to this device.



There isn't another active call. If I click the "Switch" button, it tries to perform the action but I just encounter dead air. The phone number listed in the popup changes over time (often, it's the number from my last call).


If I do nothing, the green button will often disappear on it's own.


Anyone else encounter this? Suggested solutions?


P.S. Already rebooted, so that isn't a solution. ;-)

Hey Danp,

I've heard of a few cases of this occurring. It definitely needs to be investigated! Please open a case and include the debug logs (if you don't feel comfortable gathering them, your support agent can help).

This has happened to me recently as well.  I think it's a bug with the 9.4.3 rollout.

Same here.  Started when I upgraded.

I was told by support that this was because of how we use the RC smartphone app (we had too many users). I tried to insist it was a bug, but got the brush off. GTK that it's not just us.

This reply was created from a merged topic originally titled Always says I have an active call. Even when no call is active, RC says "Switch call to this device".  When clicked, neither "Cancel " or "Switch" have any affect and it still says I have an active call.

I am having this same problem. Why hasn't this been resolved?
