Any update?
These files have been uploaded. Has anyone had a chance to take a look at them? FencesIssueReport_v6.0.0.2_2025-09-25_08-54-26 John Simonq.zip Backups John Simonq.zip Thanks, -John
I just uploaded the files and referenced this thread in the text of the issue.
Bump... where do I find the backup files?
Yes, when I dock, I want the middle screen to be my primary screen. You should be able to see the taskbar icons next to the clock to indicate which is my primary screen. I can't seem to find where the backup files are stored. I looked in the install directory and poked around in the users directory.
I uploaded an issue report about a problem where Fences never restores icons to the correct monitor after connecting my docking station. I did not get any follow up communication. Could you please confirm it was received? Moved to Fences area
I started using a new computer a few weeks ago and this just happened again..... Reinstalling on the last computer didn't help. Any update on if this was resolved?
No Luck. I tried several things noted and even the registry change. It just seems like when you make the icons bigger, the space between the icons grows inside the fences, but not on the desktop. I don't know....maybe it has always been like this....maybe I changed my icons to medium a while back and didn't realize the spacing until I opened this post. In any case, it seems like a waste of desktop real estate if you can fix it. Classic <i
I will give this a try when I get back to the office, but I am not optimistic. Note that the spacing on the images I posted. On the desktop, the spacing is consistent. The icons are nearly touching. But the horizontal spacing of the icons in the fence grows with each increase of the icon sizes.
Hi, sorry for the delay in responding. I am not sure what changed. Probably a windows update. I am not sure where I can see DPI, but I have scaling set to this. I created a new admin account and the behavior is the same. I also did a Windows refresh because of other reasons and the behavior has not changed.
Any other ideas?
Thanks for the help. I started thinking this was more of a windows issue, but now I see the spacing in the fence is independent of the spacing on the desktop. Below, you can see what I mean. The first picture is the classic icon size. As I make the icons bigger, the space between them grows inside the fence by a larger scale than on the desktop. Any help would be appreciated, this is a lot of wasted space on an already crowded desktop. Thanks!  
This is the spacing before I had this issue. This is the spacing that I see now.
Great....I purged, rebooted, reinstalled, rebooted, and now I have a completely empty desktop. No icons (files show in Windows Explorer) . I purged again and rebooted still no icons. Installed a second time and now have icons, but spacing is the same.
Ok, I renewed my subscription. They still seem spaced farther out than before.... Is there a setting that changes their spacing?
Today the icons inside the fences became very spaced out. See attached image. The icons below the fence are about the spacing I was seeing prior to today. I also put the software versions below.

Sometimes the system is sluggish after resuming from sleep. I suspect it has something to do when I put my laptop to sleep with no monitors attached, and then waking it up after connecting the USB C docking station which has 2 additional displays attached. The task bar is unresponsive and Windows Explorer is consuming all of the CPU available. Typically responsiveness comes back after 15-30 seconds. I am not positive that it is related to Fences, but it may have someth
I fat fingered a hot key that I use to launch notepad, and my desktop changed to a list view at the top of the screen. I can't seem to find out how to change it back. Anyone have any idea what happened and how to fix it? Thanks!
