Fences problem populating files and folders into fences

Windows 10 - Fences appear but files and folders won't populate within them

from Stardock Forums

My fences appear on restart/reboot; files and folders are stacked behind and beside my fences; and won't populate to within them. I rebooted computer and restored three previous stored fence configurations. No change. Suggestions?

Thank you for your suggestion. To be sure, when I uninstall Fences Stardock, are my previous recent Fences configurations saved?

I followed your suggestions exactly but same problem. Tried system restore but failed. Said something about antivirus program creating error but I turned off antiviral and malware programs. What next?

Not synching desktop (files/folders) to OneDrive. I had started to synch with DropBox but I paused it; then transferred back all files/folders back to my PC.

I checked the "path" of my desktop and it says: This PC > Desktop. However, when I do a search for a folder, it still appears as: "Users\Ric-Lenovo\Dropbox\My PC (LAPTOP-M0D22OU2)\Desktop)" ... so I'm not sure if this is the problem. And, if it is, how to fix it.

Here is what my screen looks like:

I have the similar issue when I accidentally turn on desktop sync on OneDrive. All my Desktop move to C:\Users\xxxxx\OneDrive\Desktop. Something like what you have on your pc. What I did was cut all those files in there and move it back into : C:\Users\xxxxxxx\Desktop. Once that is done. You can try use the Fences layout restore. Some might move back. But some, you will still need to move it manually back into its own Fences.

Thank you,
