Got this bug after all mentioned events.
Tried to fix using @jlsalbego solution, but just ended up causing kernel panic.
(something like

Since my filesystem remains intactm I'm trying to fix it now
I got the bug after just turning off and on window spread.
I managed to fix the bug by reinstalling xorg-server with this tutorial:
https://www.computersnyou.com/4945/re-install-xorg-xserver-completely-ubuntu/
After reinstalling the xorg server, ubuntu desktop, unity tweak tools
and a reboot;
Can not reproduce in 16.04.1, Unity 7.4.0, unity-tweak-tool
0.0.7ubuntu2, and from git master.
Also verified as not reproducible by Oerheks on freenode, using unity-
tweak-tool 0.0.7ubuntu2, Unity 7.4.0.
If you can not upgrade from 14.04 for whatever reason, please use the
workaround mentioned

As part of the big bug review for 16.04 LTS, I have tested this on 15.10 and
the bug is still there.
I followed the steps in comment #7 and now my window spread is broken. The
desktop freezes with no logout.

Disabling window spread in unity tweak tool doesnt prevent the crash
when clicking in a launcher icon with multiple windows opened. This also
triggers the window spread. Unity tweak tool is just disabling the
shortcuts.

Workaround:
1) Open CompizConfig manager
2) Go to "Window manager" category
3) Enable "Static Application Switcher"
4) If asked to resolve conflicts mantain the actual values (option in the
middle).
5) You will see unity restart and the window spread working again.

Thank you Rodrigo for your diagnostics and workaround. This is
definitely a bug in Unity. Unity Tweak tool only manipulates the
settings exposed by Unity.
We'll continue to track this bug in UTT for reference though we have no
code change, and the fix must happen in Unity.

The same happens for me. Maybe the NVidia drivers?

I'm unsure whether this is the same behaviour, but I observe a blank
desktop (no panel, no launcher, etc.) for a brief moment when attempting
windows spread.
** Tags added:
I have the same issue. Would only like to add:
- Changing settings in Unity Tweak Tool has the same effect (unwanted
logout). This is not restricted to 'Window spread', i.e. happens when
changing other settings, too (I tried 'Hotcorners' and 'Window
snapping')
- My Window Spread had worked OK
Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.
** Changed in: unity (Ubuntu)
Status: New = Confirmed
