You keep sending me this ..about sandbox and I do not have sandbox anywhere on my pc!  You need to offer better help.  I have already uninstalled deskscapes. Please advise help other than bogus sandbox

Are you on Windows pro or Windows Home, if you on Windows Pro, sand box is available for you, you might just need to turn it on. Refer here on how to get to it.

But, if you wish not to test it in Windows Sandbox, please do let me know, I will then forward your issue to Support for further assistance.

Thank you,

Still not working...is useless since windows update as other poster states.  Now, trying update, says it won't because it needs windows 10.  Seriously? I have win 11!  Just like the poster and everyone else.  Why send an update to work with an OLD windows? WTF? I will give it another week, then you are garbage!!!  And will stop payment

I understand you are frustrated, but that tone and language with staff that is trying to help you cannot continue.

Hello, yes it's w11 insider. 

But I'm an insider since years and it's the first time than desk scapes and fences don't work like this...

You know, you can go insider easily.

I will certainly not roll back and risk to break my system just because a paid app don't work 😢

You certainly know the risks of running insider builds of Windows on a production PC (The install itself warns repeatedly).  It is a near certainty that you have experienced issues with other 3rd party software. 

The primary goal of these insider builds is to find these very things, but not to report to the 3rd party in most cases, but to provide feedback to Microsoft that they possibly broke something.

Nope.  Fixed the windows issue and screensaver is working with windows screensavers, but NOT with deskscapes.

What did you have to do to make the Windows native screensaver work?  Does it still work?

What, if anything, did you knowingly do to make it work?  What, if there is anything you can think of, changed?
