Icons pop out of Fence when right-clicked and an option is selected

from Stardock Forums

I just discovered that when I right-click an icon that is in a fence and then click an option in the menu that appears the icon pops out of the fence as a result, along with the normally expected result of the option i click on. It doesn't seem to matter what option is picked either. I've done it with three different game and the recycle bin. It happens every time.

 

I'm running Windows 7 with 32gb ram, i5 4th gen, and also running displayfusion.

I've been seeing the same behavior off and on using Windows 8.1

I can't tell what is different when it happens?

This has been a long-running issue for many Stardock users, including me.

This bug has been in previous versions of Fences, including and before the Fences 3 update.

I would appreciate some investigation on the subject, as right clicking on an icon is a pretty integral part of system functions. 

The issue has not been resolved even with a complete OS re-installation, and re-installation of Fences.

You can easily replicate this bug by doing the following:

1. Create a fence with atleast one icon within it

2. Use the "roll up" function to hide the fence away in its title

3. Scroll over the fence to reveal the icon(s)

4. Right click and select "Run as Administrator" 

My system specs:

No you can't, at least not on my Win 10 machine.  Looks like it's a localized issue and you'll need to contact support specifically.

Ive already contacted support and basically reinstalled the program with a special .bat file, but the issue persisted.

After completely wiping the machine clean on my own accord, the issue was still evident.  So I mean im not too sure what I should do honestly, support dropped after I said issue was still happening. What else could they do for us?

Im assuming you aren't on a beta program of win 10, as results will be quite varied.

Providing all os details for support will help..... more relevant than what ram you have etc.

Third party software added to the os can also cause varied results.

Exact os build version info is critical.
