Working with Stardock Fences

Hi,

I'm using Dexpot and Stardock Fences. I understand there may be some incompatibilities between the two - which is fine - but I'm just trying to figure out how they work together.

Dexpot shows the same fences on each virtual desktop that I had on the main desktop. And that's fine too. But if I save something to the desktop on desktop2 - it only shows up on desktop2. And I can't find it using Windows Explorer c:/users/name/desktop if I'm on a desktop other than the one I saved it in!

So I'm just wondering if anyone could tell me what folder these additional desktops are saved into. There are some files I want to make sure are saved into the main desktop. If I can just find the folders, I don't mind copying them.

Also, does anyone know if it's possible for Desktop to show the same Fence icons for all desktops?

Thanks!

That's actually the default behavior. If the option "Settings > Switching Desktops > Customize desktop icons" is disabled, you should have the same icons on all desktops and Fences should work as usual.

Only with icon customization enabled do you get a separate folder for each desktop. The folder for desktop 2 you're looking for is "C:\Users\%username%\Desktop 2".
