Hi Ken, wondering if you can update to a version that contains more debug logging and get a us a report?

1) Install https://stardock.cachefly.net/software/Fences/Fences6/Fences6_6.5.6.2-j140-Setup.exe

2) Go to About tab, and from Troubleshooting choose "Create error report package" and upload it to us.

We're happy to look into why this is happening for you.
