Compatibility issue with Windows Slideshow

November 4, 2016 2:01 AM from

Hello,

I have a conflict between fences and Windows' s slideshow.

When on Settings > Personalization > Background, I select Background = Picture

At that point Fences works like a charm, everything is fine. I reboot: still works as expected.

If I go to Settings > Personalization > Background and Select background = Slideshow, BOOM! immediately Fences crashes.

I right click "Enable Fences": Fences tries to launch and crashes.

I reboot, Fences still does not work.

I go back to Settings > Personalization > Background, I select Background = Picture.

I right click "Enable Fences": Fences works again as expected.

Is anyone facing the same issue?

Windows Enterprise

Version 1511

OS Build 10586.633
