Fences 3

Keep using Fences 3

September 27, 2023 4:35:19 AM from Stardock ForumsStardock Forums

Dear,

I have been using Fences 3 for years and I am very happy with it. Therefore, I want to continue using it on my new computer.  Where can I download Fences 3? 

 

Thanks in advance

Thanks for the quick response,

I have already tried the steps you describe but I always end up with Fences 4. I have the "Object Desktop" installed on my computer. In the list I see Fences but when I download it I still get version 4 . 

 

Thanks

Please post a screenshot of that page to us so we can understand it better. Don't forget to black off those activation keys.

Thank you,

I don't think you can download Fences 3 anymore after a new version has been released. It wasn't like that with other Stardock software in the past, so unless you have kept a backup copy of the installer, I'm afraid you cannot download it.

Any particular reason you don't want to use Fences 4?

I believe, if you get Fences 3 from Object Dektop pack before, then Fences 3 no longer available for download once Fences 4 officially released. It different, if you purchase Fences 3 as a stand alone product. Any reason you not wish to move on to Fences 4?

Thank you,

Thanks everyone for responding. 

I bought Fences 3 as a stand alone product at the time. It is a bit strange that after updates I can no longer use my older version, no updates ok, I can live with that. But I should still be able to download the software. 

So it means I can no longer use Fences on my new computer. That is a shame.

The reason I don't want to buy the 4 is because I'm still very happy with fences 3, all the extra "stuff" I don't need and won't use anyway. 

Unfortunately, maybe in the future I'll buy fences again but for now I'm going back to old school tidying up my desktop

 

Thanks guys

If you purchased Fences 3 as a stand alone product, and its linked correctly to your account. I believe, it should appear in your account product download page. If it does not please raise support ticket using the link below, use the product not receive option. Include all information details. Remember to record down the ticket number for future reference if needed. Do not raise multiple ticket, that will make your ticket back to the end of the line. Send once and wait. Ticket will be answer by the order they send in.
