Fences does not load initially

Hi, 

 

Ive been using fences for ages now, but recently, 2 - 3 weeks, perhaps since a Windows Update, Fences doesnt load. The icons are all over the placv on the desktop.

 

If I right click the desktop, the fences then appear.

 

I have tried reinstalling but makes no difference.

 

Any suggestions.

thanks

Jp

I have the same problem.  No Fences or icons until I right click on the screen.  Tried the beta (downloaded today) and still have the issue.

Windows 10 64 bit.

I think the same thing happen to me? I rebooted my pc and when it restarted the desktop icons were missing. When i restarted fences it said something like fences isn't loaded or failed to load. I reinstalled and it seems to be fine now, but im afraid to reboot again. lol8(|  8C
