Using Fences - All Desktop Icons Disappear

from Stardock Forums

I installed fences and suddenly all my desktop icons disappeared.  I know there is a feature to hide desktop icons.  I tried both ways, click on and unclicked "Hide Desktop icons and neither brought back my desktop icons.  I do not want to hide my desktop icons but rather rearrange them in a logical order.  I had to uninstall Fences to get my icons back.

Thanks for any help

Hello,

Sorry to hear you are having issues.

Did you Double Click to turn ON or OFF

to show or hide fences.

Yes,  I double Clicked sever times to "show or Hide" fences and yet all the icons remained hidden.

I've noticed that when I use Start 11 some icons in my Fences 4 program disappear too!
