Fences 3 wont uninstall

from Stardock Forums
I started to have an issue about 3 months ago with whenever i would take a snapshot and try to restore my fences to the layout I had made, they would just move back to the previous layout.

I then tried to uninstall Fences and reinstall to try and fix this issue, but now I can't uninstall Fences at all, its not available in the Program Uninstall list, but it still pops up every time I start my computer. I also tried the "purge and re-install" method and it still did not fix my problem.

I want to continue using Fences, but I cant figure out how to solve this issue. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hello,

Sorry to hear you are having issues.

Please try the following:

-For Win8/10 Users: Open the Start Screen, and type 'cmd'. Right-click on the search result and select 'Run as administrator' from below.

-For 7 Users: click Start, in the start search field type 'cmd'. Right-click on the search result and select 'Run as administrator'.

-Type: sfc /scannow

-Wait for the scan to complete (this can take several minutes)

Some help on how this looks should you need it:

If the SFC finds errors, but cannot fix them, please also run the following command in the same command prompt window:

dism.exe /online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth

The above command should assist with replacing any damaged or problematic system files. Please note, however, since it may require restoring certain files, this process can take some time and you will need to be patient until it has completed.

Please let me know whether this resolves your problem or if you have any additional questions.

Thank you,

Reinstall Fences over top so that it does show there.
