Fences move and get smaller on their own. Why ???

from Stardock Forums

I have a Windows PC and every couple of days the Fences have changed.    Note sure if it is after sleep or not, it just has moved when I go to use the PC.     My layout has all fences on the left side, but then they get smaller and shift left about 25%.    - see attached pictures please - 

Windows 10 Pro 22H2 OS 19045.2486  with Windows Eperience Pack 120.2213.4190.0

Asus monitor connected via HDMI to the PC.    Video is Intel UHD Graphics 750 built into i7 CPU

Fences 4.0.7.2

I have tried rolling back driver to see if it made a difference and also searched for update driver, none found.  Rollback didn't help 

Thanks Doug

Hello,
Sorry to hear you are having issues. It might be because you change the resolution of your screen somehow. Usually, playing games which change screen resolution might do that. Anyway, have you tried using the layout snapshot restore function?

Thanks

Thank you for the help.  I'm not playing games or anything, just doing normal websurfing, office stuff and my resolution does not seem to be changing - I checked it is always the same so I still have the problem happening for some reason.

Thanks for the tip on how to restore -  I wasn't aware of that feature, but used the restore snapshot as you suggested so my Fences are back to where they should be for now.   

Cheers Doug

Do you have multiple display attached to that system? Sometimes, when there are dual or more screens system. The layout change when the monitor turn off for sleep mode or manual power down. etc

Thank you,
