"Fences has not been properly activated"

On Windows XP I have set up several User Accounts. I have FENCES Pro.

This is not normally a problem. I can use FENCES with any User Account I create.

But, I'm having a difficulty with one account. When I try to start up FENCES I get" "Fences has not been properly activated".

I've tried to reactivate using STARDOCK. I even uninstalled, then reinstalled, but still get same message.

What I think I did was select "Switch User" to log onto another User. Of course, this is a Windows thing. But, I probably did not fully log off from the original User. Then I probably ran FENCES for the first time after I'd switched User. But now I get the get "Fences has not been properly activated".

Can I remove some file that might be corrupted, and will FENCES then remake it?

Okay, I wonder if part of the problem was using a FENCES shortcut that did not quite tally.

I went into Start> All Programs> Stardock> Object Desktop and selected the FENCES icom to send to desktop.

When I use that shortcut, to bring up FENCES, FENCES comes up okay.

So, maybe I might have been using a shortcut that was not quite kosher.

All seems fine now.

Great, glad to hear it worked out for you.
