Hi, As noted above, I can't install Fences 3.05 as the installer is telling me I need internet explorer 8 or above. I'm using a cut down version of win 10 minus microsoft's bloatware which I won't install (including explorer). Is there a way around this?

On one fence I have so many icons that I have always to scroll down when I need access to newest files.

Is there any chance to see this feature in future?

I just upgraded to the latest version of fences. Is there anyway to revert back to ESC key to hide the fences. Secondly, the double click on the desktop to hide the fences is very slow to respond. It take about 2 secs to hide and 2 secs to unhide. Do you have any idea why it's so slow. I have mobile workstation with a nVidia Geforce card so it not a PC issue. Any ideas?

≪ Previous: Feature Friday! Aspect WindowBlinds by DaveBax

I don't even know if there is a solution, but I find this to be so frustrating. Here's what happens (and this is just one example of the problem)

I have a fence for business, and within that fence I have a "QuickBooks 2018" icon. If I launch that application, it obviously selects the icon first before it launches the app. Ok, so I do what I need to, close out of QuickBooks and I'm back on my desktop.

Now let's say I create a new folder on my desktop and name it "My New Folder". After I typ...

The Recap

All you really need to know is that some n00b decided to build a PC (pssst, that n00b is me!) and here’s the conclusion of the grand adventure! If you missed Part 1, you can read it here.

The Build

First things first: we cleared the living room. This meant rolling up my rug to reduce any potential for static, vacuuming the floor well to make sure it was clean, and locking my cat Miza up in my bedroom (who did NOT appreciate that, by the way). Once we got everything...

Just wondering what you all think of curved monitors? I just got a 27" Samsung with the curve. So far I like it. At first I noticed the curve but It's getting to the point I don't notice it. They say you get a more immersive experience. I don't know about that but it's sure nice on the eyes and the extra real estate on the desktop is great! I'd give this monitor A+

I've been getting messages that the software could not start for some unknown reason. I decided to download the latest from their website. Unfortunately, when installing 2.4.0 it wants to use the old 2.2.7 installer to uninstall the version I was running., which I overwrote when I downloaded the new one. I can't use control panel uninstall for the same reason so now I'm stuck. Can anyone email the older installer? I'll send my personal email via a PM here if you can...

I've ugraded to Fences 3 and it has made my desktop run very poorly. Programs take longer to load, a double click sometimes doesn't open the program but rather removes all the icons from the desktop. Is there a fix?

Can't click on icons in my folder portals

≪ Previous: Fences is Really Slow

Hi there,

I've spotted a bug in the new version of fences (3.0.7.6). I cannot click on the icons in my folder portals. The only way I can access them is right clicking and opening the folder. I'm using Windows 10 home 64bit version 1709 (OS build 16299.192)

Is there something I should do or is there a fix for this on the way? The problem arose when I upgraded from Fences 2 to Fences 3.

Thanks,

Duncan

Anyone of the resident HW enthusiasts going to upgrade to upcoming AMD Threadripper or Intel i9? If yes, which one are you looking at?

Personally, i was thinking about sticking to my last year´s setup with 6-core Intel CPU, but the upgrade bug gets stronger the more i read about it Now i consider getting the CPU and new mobo and switching just 2 of those for my current ones, keeping the rest of the rig the same - which i think should be no issue. I will probably go Intel way, unless AM...

It looks as though the 1920x1080 is being rendered on my 4K monitor and vice versa. Is there any way to fix this? I was really hoping to use this for a beautiful custom screen saver....

I just reinstalled OD on a clean install of Win 10 (latest update). I have 9 tabs and they get progressively smaller from left to right. The tab on the left is about 2" wide with the label centered - the last tab on the right is about 3/4" with the label abbreviated. This did not happen before the reinstall. Any ideas?
