Cannot move Fences, or icons.

If you right click the desktop and choose view is "lock fences" checked?

Lock fences option is not checked.

Ok.  By the way, I cannot tell from the video what you are doing.  The popups open and close too quickly.  can you post it again?

Basically the issue i'm having is that moving the fences doesn't do anything. It feels like i'm clicking though them (kind of like locked fences mode). Icons also doesn't move, they just sit there. When i reset the fences like i did in the options, the icons just bugs out. Where if i drag one into the fence i'll see the icon, but if i click for the selection box, they just disappear and move into the fence. I already uninstalled fences for now as it's extremely buggy.

When i didn't have this current problem, sometimes every icon on my desktop will get selected randomly. This makes it extremely annoying when trying to rename or move files as it will just apply it to everything on the desktop. After getting renamed, fences won't "recognize" the icons since fences most likely recognize icons by name?

Do you have the latest version, v2.13? Are you using any software like 360?

Yes i was using the latest version. I'm currently using 360 Internet Security, although i'm not sure if that's the issue since i don't see any logs related to fences.

hello, 

I have same problem as you, also having 360 internet security installed.

can't move icons into fences or inside fences.

Turn off/uninstall the 360 application and you should be able to use Fences. This is a known compatibility issue with that software.

That's weird, i was using Fences along with 360 Internet Security just fine prior to reinstalling my OS. Will this be fixed in the next update of Fences or is it just not possible to fix?

Also, I was experiencing issues with Fences where it will just highlight every single item in the desktop when clicking on the desktop. This causes many issues when trying to rename, or just simply moving the icons. Is there any fix for this issue?

Also thanks a lot for the replies!

I managed to fix the issue with 360 IS by adding the fences directory into the trusted list. Still not sure how to fix the issue where it highlights everything though.

I'm not sure about your highlighting issue iZetiX. I don't believe that's Fences. Glad to hear you figured out the 360 IS issue.

If anyone else is having an issue with 360 Internet Security/Total Security, please add it to your trusted list.

I have same problem with 360 Internet Security as you have. Will try to do your fix to test if it works correctly after that.

I have the latest fences version installed.

not working for me.

could you explain what steps did you do to fix the problem?

Thanks

Here is the trusted settings for my 360 TS 

i have it configured like you have, but for me it's not working fine.

i have just reinstalled fences but still can't create or move icons inside fences....

Have you tried restarting after you added it to trusted?

how do you update to 2.13?
