i'm running 3.01
but still i'm unable to move fences.
i'm also unable to create fences with right and left mouse click.
i created a folder portal with Alt-and move the folder to desktop
i bought it 2 days ago but i'm disappointed at the moment
Oh my!...again these OS limitations))) I hope you will find the way to arroud this problem in future updates. Great app! Thank you!
The new feature than I'm enthusiastic about is the ability to roll up fences to the title bar.
The other features don't really matter much to me. For example, I'm currently running Fences 2.0 on Win 10 without any problems, so Win 10 compatibility is not an issue. And it never felt the desire to blur the wallpaper.
I'm curious as to which new feature(s) is/are the biggest selling point(s) for you?
Thanks for the comment
But i checked that and fences are not locked.

A little update.
I was running a insider preview build of Windows,
Past weekend i freshly installed windows 10 without being a insider
Now everything is working fine.
I think fences is not compatible with insider previews!
Do you recall what build it was?
I was running the latest 14342 insider preview build from the fast ring.
#BUG or Glitch#When changing wallpapers manually or when wallpapers change automatically while background blur is on, all fences turn completely see-through for 2-4 seconds before becoming blurred again, wich doesn't look that nice in combination with the multi-monitor bug.
+1 Fences 3 issues with insider preview Windows 10 build 14343. I cannot open the Fences control panel dialog. I cannot create new fences.
Is this a free upgrade for existing Fences 2 users? I am curious because I have updated fences to 3.01 on my computer and it now asks for registration. I have tried with my email/registration key as well as trying to activate with the Stardock account, but no luck. Restarting the PC does not help at all either.
There is a link at the bottom of this page: https://www.stardock.com/products/fences/download.asp
Upgraded but don't see any difference.
I have activated the software, but whenever I double click a fence to roll it, I get a message to entering license key again, though its already activated.
"Win10 users can have translucent ... fence."
But NOT if you run DeskScapes by Stardock on Windows 10. [e digicons]:'([/e]
I ran the installer, but Fences 2 appears to still be running. Shouldn't it have updated/upgraded my old install? If I manually uninstall Fences 2 do I lose my configuration?
AWESOME! I took the warning notice as an unconditional surrender. I should have known better.
Does Fences3 work on Windows7 home premium? Or does it do all the new stuff only on windows10?
Fences 3 is supported on Windows 7. Blurring of the wallpaper behind a Fences is Windows 10 only.
Thank you Island Dog! Now to buy fences3!! woohoo!
Quoting Gangsta_Playa, reply 13Just updated: strange issue: every time I enable fences (using the enable button in the settings) I'm unable to move my desktop icons, scroll in a fence, make a new fence, scroll to a second desktop page,... I'm only able to right, left click on stuff.(windows 10 pro 64bit -- clean install of fences using revo uninstaller) Edit: If i disable fences using the same button I can move my icons again.Edit: just found something, when I move an icon using right click (press right mouse button down on an icon, move it to somewhere, release right mouse button) and then select the "Move here" option. It works? But al the other things still don't work. I ran into this issue too. I think it's because the Fences are locked. Right click a Fence, go to "View", then untick "Lock Fences".
