Hello,
Sorry to hear you are having issues. Need more information.

  1. Windows full version number. Use Winver.exe
  2. Fences version number.

Thanks

Do you have any icons/shortcut that link to share/network drive or folders within your desktop Fences?

Thank you,

Try, as a test, move those into a folder and reboot. Enable Fences, if it working, move those icons back into the desktop area one at a time until you found one or few that causing the issue.

Thank you,

Moving the network links to a folder but it did not solve the problem. Following a suggestion from a colleague I changed my background from a slideshow to a single color worked an I have not had the issue since.

Hi Bill,

A have a question related to that situation, were you doing the background slideshow via Windows itself or using software like Deskscapes or WPE?
