Hello,
Sorry to hear you are having issues. First check this setting.

If it is properly set, and still not working, perhaps, something is blocking your mouse click from Fences. Do you have any other application running in the background which also has control on your desktop area? Perhaps it has its own desktop management featured introduced. There was a report where an antivirus application also come with some sort of desktop item, which blocking Fences.

Thank you,

Hi Basj
I have it set to right button, but tried changing this and rebooting but still not able to create a new fence because there is no Fences menu appearing.

What antivirus was this reported problem?
I therefore checked the following - 
I 'm able to change  an existing fence name, but cannot move its location on the screen

 

Literally just as I am typing I get a Micrososoft update

Thought you might like to  know Fences is now OK. 

I'm thinking  the Microsoft Defender issue update fixed whatever was an issue.
Would appreciate knowing if that was the one reported before.
