Switching from 4K laptop to Dual USB Monitors (1080p) takes very long

Sometimes plugging in USB dock restarts desktop (explorer)

This is more of an FYI as I suspect I'm expecting too much from Fences 3.

I have a Thinkpad with 4K screen, Nvidia graphics, 200% scaling. When I plug into a DisplayLink USB Dock and close the laptop, it takes several minutes for the dual 1080p displays to refresh and resize appropriately, with Fences not really resizing appropriately.

Sometimes it hangs for a minute and then restarts the desktop (explorer.exe) program, which resets the windows appropriately (except the scaling on Fences still doesn't seem to be right.)

I've uninstalled Fences for now, but may try again in the near future.

Windows 10 Pro, 1709, 64bit
