Fences 3 pile of icons mess at Log in on Windows 10 64bit

from Stardock Forums

At log in of my profile on Window 10 64bit my fences which are mostly lined up one below the other on the left side of the screen will be just a pile of icons on top of each other until the computer has finished booting up.

Then the fences will all appear as they should. All Rolled up.

My machine is darn fast. I7 6800, m.2 ssd, 32gb ram, nvidia 1080

All drivers current. Windows 10 with all current updates

Dell 5K monitor

I do have a few programs that are loading up at log in such as Steam, Logitech g910 keyboard software, dell monitor drivers, probably Oculus  Rift drivers.

It is no until Steam has finished checking for updates that fences with then clean everything up and look correct.

This problem only appears at log in. Afterwards everything about fences works properly.

So maybe this is a problem with the order in which programs are loading up at boot. Maybe Fences can be moved up the list somehow?

Maybe this is an issue with the ultra high resolution that I am running at?

Suggestions?

Same here.

 

I just purchased Fences today via Steam and I have the exact same problem.

My PC specs are even similar:

 

OS: Windows 10 64bit.

Intel i7-6850k

128 GB RAM

m.2 ssd 2TB 960 Pro as main dd

Nvidia 1080Ti (x2 SLI)

Asus (2560X1440) 144Hz monitor

Logitech Gaming Software for G710+ Keyboard, plus a bunch of MSI programs and another one from Intel (Turbo Boost Max Technology 3.0), plus Bitdefender at startup

No Steam at startup though

 

Any solution to this problem?

 

Thanks in advance.
