Hello,

Sorry to hear you are having trouble.

See if restoring a snapshot helps:

Well even stranger, i rebooted, no change. I later rebooted again and now the old fences are back from the previous install, as well as the newer unsorted icons. So I guess I'll wait until/if it happens again to try your idea. Totally weird that it could disappear for two boots and then return.

Thanks.

Usually when fences went missing, please check if was accidentally move to other Fences' Desktop Pages. Simplest steps, just disable Desktop pages and see if everything return.

Thank you,

I had the settings correct. Today on boot the older fences were back after a really, really long boot that seem to launch twice. Then the screens had the same wallpapers although i had set to different one for each. I dragged all the icons from all fences to the desktop and deleted the fences.

- This entire display just blinked off and on and did not take my typing input - so the weirdness continues.

Then, when i clicked in an empty spot on the second monitor, the wall[papers suddenly flashed and changed to what they should have been on boot, each different.

I'm probably just going to delete everything again and wait until you guys can come up with software that actually works on my pc.

Thanks for help I guess.

Hello,

If you still interested please try the purge and reinstall steps and see if it help your problem: https://forums.stardock.com/486084/fences-support-faq#reinstalling. Just make sure to re-download latest version from your account again. Reboot after the purge. Install, reboot, retest and report back.

listen, in my original post i said i just reinstalled these programs, so how is reinstalling them any different?

This program suite seems to riddled with more issues than features!

Today my 2nd monitor has the same wallpaper as my first monitor.

Nothing seems to work right or right for very long. Look at the issues list in this forum alone!

Are you sure you're releasing stable versions of this?

Everytime I try this software it craps out. I have a middle of the road system, nothing fancy, nothing outrageous, nothing 'special' and it can't handle a W10 pro system.

Any changes MS makes sends your suite into fits.

me too.

Well, looks like another uninstall.   So much potential, so little delivery.

Thanks, I guess.

Don't use ObjectDesktopManager.  It is buggy as hell.  Just get your apps from your downloads page, you'll have better success.

  And you can save the program files and install them incase you have to reformat.

That's good advice, and that's what I did. I kept Deskscape, as I like the wallpaper control and it seems to stay out of the way well. Fences has never worked right, it moves things around randomly, so I left it uninstalled. I do like the idea of having the copies of the individual programs locally for reinstall.

Thanks.
