Yes,  to switch of this feature is one solution so far :D even on 3.05 Beta..

Simple switching off Fences completely: Wow the old fast double click is back! In other words fences does some additional processing/hooking what is not required at all 8O

Two questions.

 

Are you talking about a MS app icon?  And if so, are you also running CursorFX?

 

Most, if not all, MS apps do not respond to a cursor skinned by CursorFX.

 

Just an idea. YMMV.

This happens for me as well and started immediately after the Windows 10 Creator Update.

I have tick-boxes enabled for my icons, so I do know if I clicked them or not. Double-clicking an icon sometimes (but not always) does a hide on a desktop even though it got ticked with the first click. The mouse pointer is definitely over the icon.

Also seeing a delay with double-clicks when applications do open, maybe 1 or 2 seconds before anything happens. That is the same for any icon, including This PC and was previously much quicker. If I double-click that same icon through an Explorer window then it is instant, so it does appear to be a desktop / Fences related issue.

I've turned off the show/hide option because that issue is extremely annoying. That does not have any effect on the delay.

I am having the same issue with the latest version of Fences and the latest version of Windows 10 Pro.  I have noticed that if I allow the cursor to hover of the icon for a couple of seconds, I am able to double click the icon and open the application instead of hiding the icons.
