Fences has conflicts with Dreamscapes. Uninstall Dreamscapes restart and your issues will disappear. Ill be posting a video highlighting this conflict sometime soon. I spent hours nailing this down.
You can purge all you want, not going to help until Dreamscapes is not running in unison with Fences. All we all hear is purge fences, purge fences. Instead of the developers actually taking the time to address the registry issues, multiple duplicate instances and un-proprietary dependencies.
IMO Fences is in a class of professional grade software, and should be treated as such. However, right now fences falls in-between professional and novelty.
Fences probably needs to be rewritten from the ground up with its own platform far far away from any other stardocks software using shell. Its almost like fences was bought out and a new programmer came and and started laying his code on top of the old code. also.... Sure namespaces and shell exts are cool and flexible with with windows explorer. However with a software like this, she needs her own playground. Give her room to stretch her legs so to speak.
