Icons Stacking

from Stardock Forums

So I recently installed Fences 3.0.9.11 on my Win10 PC (OS build 19041.804), and there is some very annoying behavior when it comes to saving new files to my Desktop. Here is a screenshot that shows the issue:

As you can notice, there are 3 icons/files stacked right on top of each other. This is the top left corner of my screen, so instead of files I save defaulting to an OPEN space on the desktop, they all just stack in the top left corner. This behavior is resolved if I uninstall Fences, and returns 100% of the time if I reinstall Fences. At this point, it isn't worth using. Sad.

Hello,
Sorry to hear you are having issues. This is a known issue of Fences. And it has been bugged internally. For now you can just simply turn off Sort (Set Sort by to None) on your desktop icons for it not to stack on top of each other. Or assign all new desktkop icons automatically into a Fences.

Thanks

Bummer, thanks. Turning off sort does not fix it.

Thanks. That is the best workaround for now.
