Persistently changes the Win11 desktop background to Fences background color.

Any suggestions

Fences 6 persistently changes the Windows 11 desktop background to the Fences background colour - unasked. Very irritating. Any suggestions for a cure?

Best wishes, Peter

Hello,

Sorry to hear you are having issues. That is strange. First, perhaps something was not installed properly. Please try purge and reinstall steps as mention here : [https://support.stardock.com/space/SHC/1332477959/Fences+purging+and+re-installing]. Just make sure to redownload the latest version from your account page. Reboot after the purge. Reinstall and reboot again after the installation. Retest and report back here.

If the issue still appear, we need more information.

  1. Windows 11 full version and OS Build number. Use Winver.exe to get these number.
  2. Fences full version number installed.
  3. Post a video showing your issue.
  4. Do you have any of these option turn on.
    1. Chameleon, if you do, under option which setting turned on?
    2. Personlization-> Tint icons->Drop down menu, which option you selected?

Thank you,

Basj,
