Hi Sean, thanks for the response. Yes, those are the settings I use. My objection is that I have to restore the snapshot every morning when I turn on the monitors. I'd like Fences to be able to do that automatically. Or I'd like to figure out an AutoHotKey that I can do it. But there is no shortcut key for any of the buttons and I don't think there is any way to automate the selection of a specific snapshot, even if there is only one. I have not enjoyed any aspect of Windows 10 (havin

Update: It turns out that the new update DOES NOT fix the problem of Fences failing to position correctly on more than one monitor.

This isn't necessarily a fix JUST for the Fences issue (migrating to other windows) but perhaps to the bigger Microsoft issue of all of the open windows migrating to Monitor #1, resizing, and stacking on top of each other. Fences is, I'm sure, just a victim of this. The underlying problem for both of these issues is Microsoft, not Stardock. I purchased a $10 program called WindowManager that allows me to control EVERY program's window that I want to be p

I think the problem is a Windows 10 problem and not particularly a Fences problem. I just set up a new dual monitor system running Windows 10. When I turn off the monitors, all of my windows are migrated to monitor #1, resized, and stacked on top of each other. If you Google "display port dual monitors windows 10 resizing moving windows" you will see what I mean. For some strange reason, my Fences installation has had no problems. The two programs that I want to keep open on monito
