[Fences 3] 9.2MB update every day

So every day for the last week I receive a desktop notification that Fences 3 needs to download and install a 9.2MB update, whether or not I choose to install it, it appears the next day.

The problem is it minimizes everything I am doing in fullscreen, be it multiplayer games where its really disrupting, or watching videos.

When I get in the Fences configuration, go to About and Check for updates, it says I am in the latest version ( 3.0.1 )

I don't know if reinstalling will make me...

Roll-up fences underneath other windows

So I upgraded to the new fences. And I liked the idea of having the roll-ups along the edge of my main screen, and just moving the mouse over them when I need to access the apps / date / folders. But when I do this, they unroll underneath the existing windows. What use is that? Is there an 'always on top' setting that I'm missing?

I'm not running any other customising software, just plain Windows 10. 

People will hit me, but.....

Polymorphic and Metamorphic Viruses…why AV Software fails at times.

So…what is a Polymorphic Virus? Quoting the technopedia:

“A polymorphic virus is a complicated computer virus that affects data types and functions. It is a self-encrypted virus designed to avoid detection by a scanner. Upon infection, the polymorphic virus duplicates itself by creating usable, albeit slightly modified, copies of itself.” – technopedia

So, perfect. Your AV works by recognizing defined viral signatures…so the coders who created the virus know this and wr...

Fences 3.1 suggestions

1. Option to not unroll a Fence on mouseover, or at least delay it.  I'd just like to be able to stack all my rolled up Fences on the side of the screen, and drag them out in the middle of the screen when I need them without them unfurling immediately.  Perhaps just an option to open them manually with the mouse instead of automatically when you touch them.

2. Some kind of utility to find out what fence an item is in ... some program icons could belong in several categories (Fen...

Fences 3.0 gets 5 Star Review from gHacks.

Martin Brinkmann, the owner of gHacks is a very skilled and responsible reviewer.

He reviewed Fences 3.0 on 5/20. Therese were his conclusions:

“There are two types of computer users out there when it comes to the desktop of the PC: those who keep it in pristine condition and don't put any files or shortcuts on it, and those who use it as the main location for downloads, shortcuts, files and folders.

You have probably seen desktops in the past that overflow with i...

It seems that there should be a mechanism developed whereas one can check what items they want downloaded and after checking is complete the download proceeds as a zip file.  Is there another method to easily perform multiple downloads?

Can icon spacing inside a fence be controlled independent of the icon spacing that Windows applies to icons that are not inside a fence

$

After having upgraded to Fences 3.0.1, I am having problems with the horizontal and vertical space around icons that reside inside a fence. I'm using Windows 10 Pro.

I understand how to change icon spacing in the Windows registry, and after having tweaked that to create the desired horizontal and vertical spacing around icons on my desktop that are not inside a fence, I am dismayed to see that icons inside a fence do not respect those settings. For example, two icons that are side by side...

The coming AI apocalypse

I think long before global climate change matters one way or the other that the fate of humanity will be determined by how we make use of strong AI.

In the near term (next 5 to 10 years) we’re going to see a huge swath of jobs disappear.  This past week Panera bread added a kiosk to let me order my food.  Wendy’s and McDonalds are already heading that way too. 

Transportation is next.  My Tesla Model X with auto-pilot is on the way. I should have it in the next mon...

Fences is broken in Windows 10 Home Insider Program

I am in the WIndows 10 Insider program. Currently using Build 14343.rs1_release 160506-1708

Screenshot is attached.
After a period of inactivity (Unknown how long, probably about 2 hours) all fences and the desktop become blank. The predefined fences are still visible, just zero content.

F5, refresh, does nothing.
Rebooting or merely logging out and logging back in will bring all the fences back.

It has been this was since I becam...

I am using Classic Shell 4.2.5 with Fences 2.13. Before I installed Fences, I could down swipe on the right edge of the desktop and open the win 10 metro screen. Now with Fences installed I can now longer do that. I searching a particular problem the web search results refers to a solution, however it is based on opening a win 10 metro screen app. Is there a way, now with fences installed, to open the metro screen without damaging my fences setups?

When running an Internet business, trust is one of the most valuable commodities a business has.  That’s why I was so surprised to discover that Teleflora seems to operate on what appears to be an unscrupulous business model.
