Love fences- hate the idea of being without it, found it best way to organize 4 monitors/desktops.

I'm running a dual boot Win7Ux64 and Windows Server 2008r2 (as a workstation).

Having said that for quite some time I've been having severe issues with hangs on log-in of my primary user account due to a Fences conflict with Explorer.

The issue is much less severe when logging into the Administrative account.

Today on Win7, Fences disabled itself due to the deadly conflict.

Fences crashes with Windows Exploer recently (started crashing about 2 weeks ago)

I cannot use Fences anymore if it is not fixed. It actually crashes with Windows Explorer and the computer is becoming really slow. I tried re-installing after uninstallation AND I CANNOT EVEN UNINSTALL IT NOW.

I have already checked virus and my computer is bought in 7 months. So I believe there is problem with Fences now and want it fixed asap.

WidnowFX does not work with Windows 10. I am not complaining, I know its the preview, just letting the developer know. 

To be more specific the windows animations don't work. Everything else seems to work. 

One thing that definitely needs fixing is transparency. I want for example if I made explorer transparent

then close and reopen it it remembers my transparency setting. Right now it doesn't.

Bill Gates, Musk, Hawkings and others have all stated their concern regarding the distressing potential dangers of AI more than once, on we go pell-mell towards self aware/self governing machines.

We can’t even get security updates right without causing severe problems, but somehow think “We can do this. We can win!”.

Just a minor thought…a program, any program (including heuristic ones) are limited by their coding and how, via this coding, they ‘learn’. The same is true...

While Google is good at revealing MS and Apple security flaws, it’s been up to its own version of one of Stuxnet’s modules: Google watches and listens to you – without your knowledge or permission, of course.

If you remember, Stuxnet had a module which could record pictures and conversations covertly while spying (presumptively on hostile governments’ activities) using the person’s computer.

I have been using Fences for a long time. After upgrading to Windows 10, I found that I nolonger can move shortcuts from one place to another on my desktop. When I try to move a shortcut, all I get is a round circle with a slash.

I've got a feature request: There are certain programs where it's not possible to open the extended right click menu and because of that it's not possible to exclude those programs from auto minimizing (e.g. Jriver Media Center, Creative console window...). It would be nice if there was a possibility to exclude them from auto minimizing nonetheless like it's possible to exclude them from custom animations. Or is there already a way to do so and I've just not come across it?

I love my Gucci icon package I have based around Appogee icons by Mormehgil; however as soon as I load iTunes, all I get is the default Apple ones. No matter how I try, I can not get icons of my choice, though they show as loaded in the properties box. Anyone have a fix for this?

That is too bad, although I started using AIMP some time ago.

Well, it’s over for 2015. What stunning photos. Seriously…I recommend allowing yourself to be entranced for quite a bit of time by them. The categories were: Outdoor scenes, sense of place, spontaneous moments and travel portraits.

Better? Many are available for free as desktop wallpapers… 1600 x 1200 for desktops, but also for tablets and phone, with some branding (National Geographic) at the bottom of the photos…
