Every time Fences has an update available its notification kicks me out of whatever I was doing.  Today it cost me an online match, which as you can understand is infuriating.  How do I disable the update notifications?  Frankly unless there's some kind of major security bug I don't see any reason to ever update it.  I've been through the Configure Fences menu but the option doesn't seem to be on any of the pages.

Hello,

so recently I have bought the regular fences app for my Windows 10 Pro desktop. Everything works like expected while trying the trial version. but here's something i have experienced while using both trial and full version..

when i try to create a folder.. open a folder/icon.. or move a folder. or just make selection with the mouse/cursor. its kinda slow process! I don't know if it's just me but its kinda laggy or unresponsive, here's what i mean:

with fences enabled:

I had this ever since I tried Fences months ago on Windows 10. I have the latest Fences, the latest Windows 10 Creator's Update, latest drivers, etc. - no problems with stability or graphics or anything. 

As you know, the Recycle Bin icon changes based on whether there is something in it or not. The icon displays the bin as either empty when it is empty or full when there is something present it. That is how it is supposed to be on regular desktop and how it is when Fences 3 is NOT used....

This post has zero to do with politics. I want none on it. While it is relevant to recent events, there's a lot more to it, namely how the Internet has to change for everyone's security (and why it probably won't).

The simple fact it that it is extremely difficult to catch cyber criminals and not much effort is made to actually do so. Why? Because it is almost impossible to accurately attribute attacks. This is because of the way the net was designed by DARPA way back wh...

I like Fences.  It makes the computer experience more organized and efficient.  When I like a program I tend to imagine how it can be even better.  Here are new feature suggestions based on my musings:

1. Time-based passthrough fences.  A user could set up a "Recent Documents" fence that would hold all documents that had been on the desktop for a certain period of time set by the user - say for up to 3 days.  After 3 days, a document object goes back to the deskt...

I agree there needs to be an always on top option for roll-up fences placed on edge of the screen.

I received a diagnostic that a DLL was missing and to try reinstalling.  The program uninstall failed.  In both cases, the reason was that DLL MSVCR120_CLR0400.dll was missing.  I then did an uninstall with REVO Uninstaller and attempted a new install.  I was unable to do a fresh install and the same diagnostic was presented.

update: resolved with a system restore.  suspect botched windows update.

One cool thing about Windows 10 is that you can tell the system to automatically pick the Windows accent color (the color used for the taskbar, start menu, window borders, window title bars, highlighting, etc) according to the current desktop background. So, for example, if the desktop background is a picture of red roses, the accent color will be some shade of red to match it. This has the effect of creating essentially a dynamic theme for the desktop.

This setting is also dynamic. In my cas...

Today, Stardock released an update for Fences. Version 3.05 includes Simplified Chinese language support along with some adjustments to existing features. Fences allows a user to automatically organize their Windows desktop shortcuts and icons in shaded areas that can be hidden by double-clicking to reduce clutter. A recent demand for Fences from the Asia / Pacific marketplace prompted the new Simplified Chinese language addition. Simplified Chinese language support brings the organization ...

Fences and Start10 are two popular apps from Stardock. Fences is an app that lets you organize your desktop icons into customizable fences. Start10 is an alternative Start menu for Windows 10 that brings additional options over the default Start menu. Both of these are also included with an Object Desktop membership.

One of the great things about having both these apps is they work wonderfully together and Start10 has an integrated feature with Fences which allows you to show your f...

Hey Devs and Stardock Team,

i tried Fences 3 when it came out but reverted immediately back to Fences 2 because of the missing "Show titlebar buttons on Fences on mouseover" option.

Recently i looked at it again but sadly the option is still not in! For me this is a very important aesthetic thing, if you use a single column fence and mouse over and the caption text will turn into "..." because of the buttons appearing. Also icons/buttons appearing and disappearing on the des...

Hello,

I saw lots of posts about the title bar moving to the bottom when align to the top edge of the screen. These posts are a few years old and I can't imagine that the developers of Fences didn't do anything in all these years.

So how can I lock those title bars ?

It seems that one of Win 10's latest updates has caused my cursor FX to not integrate with the default cursor i.e. Cursor FX rides on top of the default which is clearly visible now. So, I have two pointers! I downloaded the Cursor FX update to no avail. Any help on this one?

Hi everyone! Just got fences and trying it out, very nice. However, it's not playing very nice when it comes to te the text on my icons. For example, here is a image of two icons on my desktop with long names:



And here is what it looks like in fences:



So you can see, the fences icon text meshes together making readability a problem (especially when there is a bunch of them. Is there a way to make the text behave more like the windows desktop?

-thanks
