Configure Fences missing from context menu (right-click) after purge and re-install

I did a purge and re-install in order to get rid of some rogue folder windows and now I can't get "configure fences" from the right-click on the desktop.  I can see other people have also had this disappear but the standard solution seems to be purge and re-install which I've done.

Any ideas, please?

19043.1237  Fences 3.133.

Nothing changed between doing the purge and re-installing.  I can open the app, but there is no right-click for Configure Fences.

Thanks.

Hello,
Sorry to hear you are having issues. Please try the purge and reinstall again as mentioned here: [link]. Just make sure to redownload the latest version from your account. Reboot after the purged. Reinstall, and Reboot again immediately after the installation. Retest it. Report back here.

Thanks

I would have rebooted both before and after the purge, adn probably straight after the re-install, but I can;t be sure, so I'll give it another go.

There are two apps I absolutely can't live without and this is one of them!  Workona is the other one if you haven't tried it.

Thanks.

No change.  Configure seems to have gone forever.  Is there a registry key associated with this that can be edited?

Sorted itself out in the upgrade to Windows 11
