Unable to configure, nothing happens

I installed on one computer with xpsp3 and it runs perfectly.

On the second, same OS, it doesn't. I can drag mouse and create new fences but it did not create the default fences. When I right-click the desktop and select "configure fences" nothing happens.Fences.exe shows up for a flash in task manager list then disappears. No error logs.

I'm unable to set the transparency/borders for any fences I have created as the "configure" menu is dead. Many others had this issue, I was unable to find resolution

Dewie, here's something for you. The fences_debug_info.txt created has an extra section with Exception error everytime I right click and select "configure fences".

Some kind of Font issue?

Some kind of Font issue?

This could be the case.  I would suggest trying to reinstall that font.
