Fences 3 and 4 No Longer can be Configured

from Stardock Forums

Can't open "Open Fences Settings" or "Configure Fences".  When right clicking and dragging the "Create Fence Here" option comes up but a Fence is not created. Tried the purge and re-install. Same issue.

I have tried installing using the latest Fences 3 installer. Fence3 was having this issue. Then I tried installing the latest version of Fences4. Exactly the same results. 

Issue is very similar to what is described in this following topic:

... but I do not see any resolution to this topic above. Please help. Thanks!

Impossible to upload a text file with that method and to my knowledge, it's not possible to upload text files to the forum other than link to it from an external source.

Yes, JanOscar is right. Impossible to upload a text file with that method pointed out by AzDude.

You can use the Link option . 

By pasting the link right on to the Thread

Yes forget the image link I posted not for a text file just an image file for future use .

Save a copy of the file to a image hosting site like Google drive 

then copy and paste the link here directly onto this thread.

example https://drive.google.com/file/d/1iEtmJlywYdR57npKsMouVfmoYLvUn1rW/view?usp=sharing

Thanks very much AzDude... really looking forward to having this issue fixed. I have been a loyal user of Fences for almost 10 years, and this is the first time that I'm seeing such a serious issue.

Hello,

It looks like you have the file access protected, you should get a notification that we requested access to it

Thanks!

Hi all, the PC that I was having problem with was reformatted due to some other reasons, and now Fences 4 is working well with this PC (after the reformat).
