The link to "download the beta from your Stardock account" only gets me to Fences 3.01.  Is there any other download link?  Because I have some SERIOUS issues with Fences 3.01 on Windows 10, hoping this might include something that fixed it.

Sorry about that. Try again and you should see it in your account.

Fences v3.01 and v3.03 (Beta) both stop working with the new Windows 10 Insider Preview Build 14936.

Same Issue here, 14936 causes Fences to crash, none of the fixes in other threads work this time.

The new v3.03 Beta also crashes on build 14936 (seems to crash explorer this time as explorer restarts).

Please Add the Following:

When navigating folders within the fence can I request 2 features:

1. Enable the backspace key for navigation like in Windows Explorer - when in a sub-folder in a fence backspace moves you up a level.

2. Make the Up arrow in the title of the fence static in position - it's annoying as it moves around based on the length of the fence title and getting back to the root of the fence can be frustrating.

 

Thank you

Both those features are already on a list for tweaking.  They bug me too.  :)

Specifically, generic shortcuts for backwards navigation should all work, e.g. Alt+Left and mouse button 4, same as in web browsers.
