I agree, I had a simular experience with Paradox's Hearts of Iron 3... There was such a mess of the original and Paradox decided to put out the expansion Semper Fi... I got it in hopes it would fix the original... I was not impressed. I like some of paradox's games, some of them are even my favorites... but HOI3/Semper just pissed me off. Enough to be so wary of their operation, that I do not trust them to issue out a functioning game... at all... and Vicky 3 was another ex

I've reverted to my old "plain" ram saving desktop theme, the new update works great so far. Awesome desktop feature JMB, worth the tidbit of headroom. I hate going through the start popup to get to my programs (which I have too many) This utility organizes all my favorable programs in a nice constant layout, my wife loves it too.

Yep, sent emails. Fences still working fine! Running the old "Windows Classic" with all animation/ram-eating options turned off seems to interfere with the way Fences works. I think if one was to run through all of the options to turn off "performance options" one at a time, one might find the culprit. Mine is now set at "best performance" general setting, at the time I was having the problems my setting were "custom" with most of the features turned off.

OK, EUREKA! I tried using a dummy account to install... that didnt work... same thing. So I looked at what was different from all the accounts, all the other accounts were using windows themes, except mine, My "theme" was minimal with windows classic look, mainly because I like to save ram for rendering 3D artwork. So I switched my theme back to the factory WindowsXP theme and NOW I SEE MY FENCES. So I think its quite possi

Yeah, I reinstalled them several times over now. 1] I've reinstalled after deleting them using Revo Uninstaller, I have functional and visible fences... until... 2] After switching profiles or restarting the computer, I have functional and visible fences on all other profiles except mine (the main profile that installed them in the first place) I'm tempted to create a new profile and install fences with the new dummy profile to see if that will allow fen

Thanks I'll do that, FYI to those reading, REVO works but I'm having to use it after switching profiles after extended lengths of time. It seems to be only effecting the installing profile and not the others.

Yep, got them back, hope they stay! Thanks, the Revo Uninstaller worked. One thing is very strange though, the uninstaller deep erased all files (max level), however after reinstalling fences, I went back to my wife and kids profile and expecting to redo the fences... however it was allready set up as I had left it before the uninstall.

Yeah, tried that, got no changes... however, on my 2 other profiles (my wife and kids, it works) I went back to mine and I got an alret that there might be an install problem with Fences. So I uninstalled/rebooted/reinstalled another 2 times I get proper function on the same 2 profiles, but the same invisible fences on mine.... grr... So I looked for the folders in "Application data" and "program files" and deleted the folders after again uninatalling fences (in case its

Same problem here. I put up my fences, added my Icons in each, then logged out and logged back in (Win XP Home SP3) The cursor still reacts to the fence but the transparency and Fence-names are invisible, it looks like my icons are in neat blocks. If I resize the invisible fences the scrollbar pops up. They still function but I'd like the fence appearance to be visible again.
