Can't move desktop icons Once in a fence

Icons are unmoveable

I can create fences but it cannot be moved to another fence or even be moved out of a fence. The only way to free a desktop icon to be able to move it again is to disable Fences altogether. Having Fences running at all completely disables any ability to move icons in any way. The icon doesn't even need to be in a fence to be locked on the desktop. It also can't be rearranged in any way. When trying to select and drag with the mouse I just get a 'circle with a line through it' symbol. Tried to take a screenshot but it wouldn't capture the mouse cursor. Similar to this symbol 🚫but gray.

Hello,

I think it is best to run Fences v3 for compatibility on latest Windows 10. Anyway, I have forward your problem/question to Stardock Support Team for their assistance. Please keep an eye on this thread for any updates. We appreciate your feedback and patience.
