Fences 5.5 loses icon positions

from Stardock Forums

I have had my Fences 5.5 lose icon positions several times in the past few days. The icons stay within the assigned Fences, but they are no longer in the right spots. I can restore a snapshot and it fixes everything, but that is starting to get annoying. Any thoughts or updates on this issue from others?

My Windows 11 build is 22621.3296.

My Windows Feature Experience Pack is 1000.22687.1000.0.

I have a link to a Google Drive folder with the following images.

1. How my desktop looks during normal work times. (This is my desktop's default state.)

2. How my right Fence looks when fully expanded (I never do this, but I did it just to show you what icons move around.)

3. How my left Fence looks when fully expanded (I never do this, but I did it just to show you what icons move around.)

4. How my unrolled top Fence looks when hovered over. (I do this a lot.)

Thank you. I installed it last night. I’ll give feedback either way (either it fixes the issue or it doesn’t).

The icons still change places within the Fences. :-/

Please include the following for anything found:

Basj, I posted there, but it was suggested I post a separate thread for the issue. I have added additional information in the initial post (with a link to screenshots). Is there anything else I should do? Thanks!
