Here we are again. Another new version and must re-buy again. Bought 3 and 4 now I have to buy 5 if I want new features. Not going to purchase any Stardock product ever again. I understand it's a business, but not a customer oriented one so I will avoid. Oh wow. Not only that but it's a freaking SUBSCRIPTION. So now not only do you have to buy something you already bought multiple times, but you have to buy it every year. Yeah, get lost.

One of the reasons why there is a 30 days trial is that you can try the fully functional program and see for yourself if it fits your nee

I bought it and it's barely different. Mostly just had bugs that were not present in 3. Will never buy a Stardock product again. I hate predatory tactics. I get it - at some point you have to make a new version and recharge for it. But in this case Fences 3 barely changed over time and 4 just barely adds anything new with maybe some Win 11 support...and you get a measly couple dollars off. Li9terally, 20% off but that's just $2. It should been 50% off at the very least.

Thanks kindly. I finally found a font that matched the normal desktop icon font and didn't misalign the icon...it works for now but still something that should be fixed :)

I just downloaded Fences 4 and before upgrading/paying I wanted to make sure it worked well for me. I like it but I use Folders instead of just normal fences (because you can eliminate text shadows that Win10 refuses to remove) but the folder icon is not aligned with the text..it looks stupid. Can we have ability to align the icon or better yet CHANGE OR DISABLE the icon? You can see what I am referring to in this Image: <img src="https://cdn.stardock.us

Start10 Fence integration is really cool but it is COMPLETELY wonky. It never stays current or updated properly. For instance I move icons to a fence then look in start menu and randomly some of them are not in the fence (but they are) Is this just a new semi wonky feature? I have always used a diff program than Start10 due to issues but the new fence integration had me com back..but of course it did not work properly.

I have seen in many screenshots people having diff colors for each fence..but I see no options for this. How can I do this?

No I mistakenly typed Object Desktop. I have the new beta 2.0 ObjectDock which I purchased...I found out how to install..the problem is things were handled differently in 1.9 and now in 2.0 so it was a bit confusing..but I figured it out. Most older docks don't work right with the new version unless you tweak the config files. Now I just can't find out where the Indicator Light setting is..in 1.9 there was an option, here I cannot find an op

Windows Vista Premium 32MB Whatever the current version of Launchpad is as I just purchased and downloaded it off Stardock Central..I am at work so don't have the number with me. Wasn't sure what the laucnher was..I assume I can do the same thing with Stardock Central or other... but figured since I hit an error I should make it known :) I will look into Impulse since you mentioned it, thanks.
