Desktop Fonts and Deskscapes

Bad Mojo my Friends

from WinCustomize Forums

I am wondering if anyone else has experienced a similar problem... I have the latest version of all the main Stardock Object Desktop software installed (Windowblinds, Iconpackager, Fences Pro, Deskscapes.) Periodically the desktop fonts go all haywire... for example they just DO NOT show up at all unless you select an icon. Even then they are often odd looking. The only way I ever seem to be able to fix the problem is by UNINSTALLING Deskscapes.

Thoughts?

Which OS are you using?

There have been reports of Fences being unhappy occasionally, would disabling fences also solve the problem for you?

Hi Neil,

This is on Windows 7.  I am not sure if it is Fences, that could be. I *think* I disabled Fences while I was trying to fix this, but I can't remember now. I do know uninstalling Deskscapes does fix it. Reinstalling then has everything working again.

This is not the first time I have uninstalled Deskscapes due to this problem. Works for a while then kaboom the problem comes up again. It is a strange bug somewhere for sure one way or another!

Thanks for your help.
