I certainly wasn't going to jump through the hoops that were presented to me so as I could be a Beta tester. As previously mentioned My PC is a work PC, I don't have time (apologies). I assumed Stardock would have 6 or more monitors laying ar

[quote who="pelaird" reply="14" id="3940798"] Really sorry you are experiencing these issues with Fences. If 5.4 is working for you, I would just stick with that for now. [/quote] I have no other choice. I have lost hours of work production time due to apparently having to BETA test a released software. I am (in my opinion) understandably frustrated. [quote who="pelaird" reply="14" id="3940798"] Are you using any 3rd party monitor management software? [/quo

When Opening the layout page, settings automatically jump from Per Screen to Per monitor and the Fences are instantly defaulting back to messed up and missing.

More questions. Please tell me: Why does the "Configure Fence"s option move from the sub context menu to the main context menu, it seems a random occurrence. Where has "Lock Fences" gone?

Windows 11 Pro 23H2 Build: 22631.4037 Fences5 5.81 6 Monitor Configuration The same thing happened with the 5.81 Beta. Updated to 5.81. Configuration lost On reboot, all my Fences need to be reconfigured/moved again. The per Monitor Layout Snapshot was useless and didn't repair my Fence place

OK, I haven't been updated about a version change to 5.81. Or I missed it, but Fences certainly hasn't informed me. Is it not released yet? I checked Fences for updates and it says my 5.80 is up to date. Thanks again for your reply. EDIT: I see that it's in Beta. I suppose I should contribute and load it.

The difference with the new layout, is that now time needs to be spent (Image 2) to do what was previously a direct action in the backups section (image 1) Every click is a process however simple, it’s still a process. It’s not just moving a mouse, it’s also user experience. I know I report a 6 monitor setup but I actually have 7. When needed (possibly a few timers a day) I turn on my Wacom Pro 24” drawing pad and sometimes it messes with my other

Please ignore. It seems I had to re-tick "Maintain Daily Backups" I can't figure out why Stardock made it so we now have to click on "Restore a Backup" to see the snaphots. Where as in previous versions the were visible by default? Is this a Bug or by design?

EDIT: Fixed please see next post. Windows 11 Pro Version 23H2 (OS Build 22631.3958) It would seem, yet again, that my 6 monitor setup isn't eligible for an update. 5.80 doesn't work correctly for me. I have had to revert back to Fences5 v5.5.4.2-j56 pre release https://forums.stardock.com/528092/get;3931676 This time, I have lost the ability to see snapsho

Thanks, that helps, but isn't practical in my opinion. I don't see why someone should be forced to connect to your website just to check what license is being used for what product. And as per my Support Ticket yesterday, your accounts section isn't always working. And to be totally honest, with 5 computers and work to do, I don't have time to waste.. As much as I very much appreciate your help, it would seem logical to add a "View License" next to your "Deactiv

Hi. I have multiple keys for multiple products, but specifically Start11v2 How can I find which Start11v2 key I am using for any particular install? I'd like to find where I can see which key I am using for "computer one" so I can distinguish which keys I haven't used so they can be used on "computer two" or "computer three' I hope I made sense there. Thanks.

Hi. Thanks Sean for the reply. Sorry for the delay, I have had to clean up, update and create new system images just in case something like this happens again. I very much appreciate you sharing this new pre-release version with me. By all accounts it seems to have fixed the issue. Just to be certain, after creating new images, I cleaned my old copy of Fences5 from my PC and reloaded Fences5 v5.53. Again, it gave me explorer restart issues. I rel

Hi, thanks for the reply. Nothing worked. Have uninstalled it an run an obscure install I found on my HDD. If there are previous versions (the one before 5.53 would be great) I’d appreciate knowing where they are. Reinstalling 5.53 didn’t work, I eventually had to load a 3 month old image and lost a lot of changes to my OS. I see that I am not the only one in the forum getting bug/crash reports
