Question: How to delete one of my desktop pages?

from Stardock Forums

Hi! I've been using Fences for a long time! really like it.

use windows 10

I used to create a lot of pages for different types of work. Recently I've cleaned up one of my pages (deleting all the fences folders and everything), and then it just became a blank page. It doesn't feel so good when I scroll all my pages and find a blank one in the middle.

thought it was easy to deal with but I've tried everything and it didn't work at all.

Is there any way to delete this blank page?  Thank you!

Hello,

Sorry to hear you are having issues. You mentioned your blank pages sit in the middle, I think you need to move one of the left or the right page to the middle and clear up the left most or the right most page than that blank page will automatically be deleted.

Yeah, it worked! Thank you!

But there is another question.:'(   What if I got 5 or 6 pages(or even more) and the blank one's in the 3rd or 4th one?

It would be a lot of work to do the moving work.

Or I wonder whether is's possible to simply move all the folders together to another page. I only know how to move each folder independently and it still took me a lot of time :(

many thanks!

At this moment, you will have to move them one fence at a time. What you can do just drag the furthest left or right to the middle blank page. That way you can skip the rest of other pages.

Thank you,

I have the same type of problem as itsjae. In my case it's an extra, empty page that has suddenly appeared from nowhere ahead of my ordinary pages. As my pages are in strict numeric order according to their content just moving the icons from the last to the first page isn't an option.  Has there been any development on the "Delete a Desktop Page front, since 2018?

Nothing on that so far. But on your issue a page get created, you can always do layout snapshot restore to get back to your previous working layout.
