Fences does not start

March 3, 2021 2:19:26 AM from Stardock ForumsStardock Forums

I have installed Fences. When I run Fences, I keep getting a pop up 

Fences does not appear to be loaded. 

You may need to reinstall Fences. 

I tried reinstalling. But the same message keeps appearing. 

I am using Windows 10 64 bit.

Dear Sir,

I tried 

- create a new user with administrator rights

- install Fences

- clean boot by changing parameters in msconfig. Keeping only Fences enabled.

- Reboot

However the result is the same. 

I tried with another PC which has Windows 7 installed. On that as well I get message as "Fences does not appear to be loaded. "

Do you have any local support in India who may take my machine online and help me resolve this?

I have the same problem. The software does not start and I cannot create fences. It is installed on a Windows 10 64 bit laptop. The Windows-Version is as follows:

 

 

Edition  Windows 10 Pro

 

Version 20H2

 

installed              ‎16.‎02.‎2021

 

build      19042.867

 

serial number     R9113LHS

 

Leistung              Windows Feature Experience Pack 120.2212.551.0

 

 The antivirus software is sophos.

What do I have to do to fix that problem?

Hello,

Can you try running by uninstalling all antivirus and/or security software and only use Windows defense for it. Reboot and retest.

Thank you,

Check if fences is activated in your explorer shell extensions. If for some reason (antivirus, etc) it is disabled you should enable it.

Uninstalling and reinstalling didn't solve this problem. I had the same problem and checked with shellexview (www.nirsoft.net) and after enabling and simply restarting the explorer process, fences worked again.
