Right clicking on a file within a fence causes various crashes on Win 11

Windows 11 Fences issue

Since I installed Windows 11, right-clicking on a file causes either:

If the file is within a folder and within a fence, the file and folder just closes with no right-click menu showing up at all

or

If the file is outside of a folder and within a fence, windows explorer crashes and I get the error about Fences being disabled that a lot of other people are getting.

If the file is on the desktop or anywhere else within the windows file structure (not within a fence), I have no errors or problems right-clicking on files.

I've uninstalled Fences and that has solved the issue, so I know it is Fences causing the problem. I'm not going to pay $30 for Object Desktop with a bunch of software I don't use just to get the alpha of Fences 4 on the off chance that it might work with Windows 11; it seems I will have to stop using Fences completely. That's a shame because I've been a customer for years and I really like the program.
