Fences 2 can't create folder portals

Hello,

I have installed fences 2 on my surface 4 pro + windows 10. When I want to create a fence in the standard way by drawing a rectangle I have the option "create a fence here"

but I don't have the option "create a portal here" and I find no other way of creating a portal. If I drag a folder to the desktop it just creates a shortcut, that's all.

How come and what can I do to solve this ?

Cheers

Hi Basj, 

Windows 10 Version 1803 (OS Build 17134.648)

Fences 2.13

Basically i want to 'create folder portal'. But when i drag the cursor to create a fence on my surface tablet, i only get the 'Create Fence here' option.

 

When i drag the cursor to create a fence on my desktop, then i also get 'Create Folder Portal here' . I need this on my Surface too. 

 

Thanks,

 

Baz

Fences 2 has not been supported for a number of years.  If you install the trial for Fences 3, does it work then:

Hi.. it works with the version 3. As i already have a product key, do i just install version 3 and use the same product key? i tried to activate the trial with the product key and it did not work. If i need to follow another link to install the right version, please share that link. 

Thanks,
