Well, the sorting options aren't in the free version, but the opacity ones are, so that's not the issue. Do you have anything else running that might be hooking into explorer.exe?
Has it always been this way, or did it start happening one day?
What new tiles and icons are you referring to? I'd recommend watching the videos on this page to get an idea of what Tiles is used for: https://www.stardock.com/products/tiles/screenshots.asp
Actually, it looks like you're right-clicking on the desktop. What happens when you right-click on the titlebar of the fence?
There is some overlap of functionality, but I'd say the biggest difference is the way it can group together sets of windows. So if you have a specific arrangement of windows for one task (say, photo editing), and different set for another task (say, email and chat), then you can set up individual pages in Tiles for each task. When you switch tasks, the windows from the first set minimize, and the windows from the second set restore in their places. When you switch back
You're able to create fences, though? Everything else seems to work? Do you have the Pro or Free version?
plang75015, Chirmaya, and Haldain, check again, it should be on your accounts: http://download.stardock.com/
This one works, too, and it's easier to remember: http://download.stardock.com/ :)
It's actually supposed to start already running. Do you have any protection software running? Try adding exceptions for WindowBlinds and see if that helps. You can also contact [email protected] and we can look a little deeper at what's happening.
Anything else going on that might be hooking into explorer.exe?

Dealing with Z-ordering is a nightmare when programming, so I'm not surprised that's where the issue is localized.

Is it that you can't move them, or can you not click on them at all?
It could be due to a hard drive failing, maybe bad memory caused the wrong data to be written in the right place, there are numerous reasons for file corruption. It's possible IconPackager was accessing a part of the hard drive that was bad, which caused things to start degrading, or it was a coincidence. It's very hard to tell how something happened, but my guess is it's hardware related, most likely your hard drive.
[quote who="Zubaz" reply="10" id="3070705"]Wow. I hope Island Dog sees this . . because it was tatgetted at him (and may still be applicable today). [/quote] I seem to recall him talking about Yankee Candles the other day to you, too.
Also, if you've purchased the bundle outside of the app, or have it through Object Desktop, you'll need to activate through Tiles: Just enter your Stardock account info, and that should do it.
Fences isn't a running program, so that's not an option. All Fences does (which is still a lot) is say where your icons are on the Desktop, and keep them corralled. I would say Zubaz's suggestion is your best bet.

Right click on your desktop, and select 'NVIDIA Control Panel'. Then do this: This was done on an Asus, but the theory should still hold up.
The duplicates should now all be refunded.
We were having parser issues, but I just checked both of your accounts, and everything seems to be in order. Your stuff should be here: http://download.stardock.com/
OK, let's all take a step back from our computers and take a deep breath. There was a parser issue, which caused a few duplicate orders. We know when and who, so we're going to be going through and refunding any duplicates, so please be patient. I do apologize for any inconvenience. Nobody wins here, but everything should be taken care of by later today.

Even though Stardock staff roam these halls, the forums are considered 'unofficial'. There's a lot that can be covered here, and our community is extremely good at helping with a lot of technical issues, but email is the only official support route.
