Scaling potral in Win11

September 22, 2022 3:35:00 AM from Stardock ForumsStardock Forums

I have installed Fences 4.0  on my Win 11 computer and can 't scale the width and hight small enough like I have on all my other computers.

Icons are set to small but the width is almost 3x bigger then the icon size.

Resolution of the screens are same  .  Is there a way to solve it.  Any help will be appriciated.

Roel

Hello,
Sorry to hear you are having issues. Need more details please.

  1. Windows 11 full version numbers. Use Winver.exe to get those number.
  2. Fences version?
  3. Windows Scaling setting. 100%, 125%, 200%?
  4. Screenshots of what you have and what you trying to get to.

Thanks

Did you have it locked? If you did, please unlock it and try again.

That is strange. Below a screenshot of fences on my test system.

Anyway, Would like to propose, try purge and reinstall steps as mentioned here: [Link]. Just make sure to redownload the latest version from your account page. Reboot after the purge. Reinstall and reboot again after the installation. Retest and report back here.

Thank you,

Your test screen same as my Win11   the width  and   hight   also 40% more then in Win 10 and can't scale is smaller.

Is it not possible  to scale the width and hight  smaller like it was in previous versions ?

Can you post a video on your Win 11 and show us how you cannot resize your fences smaller.

Thank you,

Same problem.

 

Please Fix.

 

Had to exchange my new Laptop. The new laptop comes with with Win 11 22H2 and Fences (4.0.7.2) looks weird and is somehow broken on this Version. Even a clean install of the Win 11 ddidn't help.

On my previous version, same laptop model with Win 11 21H2, Fences worked fine and looked good.

 

Seems a bug with Win 11 22H2.

 

If more information needed, then I try to provide them.

 

 

Kind regards
