Icons cannot be dropped into Fences

I have installed Fences 5.80 on Windows 11 Enterprise.

I can create a fence, but when I try to drag and drop desktop icons into the fences, they simply go behind the fence and do not move with the fence. After a few minutes, the fences themselves disappear altogether.

Any suggestions?

Thank you,

Mike

Update – our mistake – please give the verison https://cdn.stardock.us/support/uploads/Fences5_5.8.2.6-j133-Setup.exe a try (v5.82 Rev 6, not the v5.82 Rev 5 previously mentioned). I have edited our previous post to point to Rev 6 as well. This copy has a fix that might help your situation. And in either event, we'd love to you get your log file to look into this issue more.
