No.I wonder if maybe it can affect the performance of the PC.
I've already tried Stardock Fences and others, but it didn't totally convince me.
*I get nothing from Stardock for telling people that it works for me, I don’t work for them.
Depends how you use Fences. I have Fences for different categories of programs (shortcuts)
e.x.
Most Used
System
Graphics Programs
Movie links
Images (on desktop
Etc etc
I also have a Fence that catches anything new that goes to my desktop that I call “Unsorted” which via settings, sends anything new that I save to my desktop, into until I can get around to moving the shortcut.
The way I have fences setup, I rarely have to use the Start Menu.
Also, I forget how because I don’t use it anymore or haven’t had time to do it since my fresh install, but when using Start11 & Fences at the same time, you can add a Fence to the Taskbar which converts it to a menu. So if a Fences has folders in it, the Fence will open like a menu on the Taskbar, then you can also expand the folder within the Fence like you would in a Start Menu.
It isn’t for everybody but these apps work for me.
