Other Software & Customization • Open source alternative for Fences

I'm a big fan of Fences... or at least, I was, until they started the subscription-licensing money-grab nonsense. Sure, you can still get a perpetual license... for an absurd $30.

The best feature to me, and why I'll keep using my old $5 version until it finally stops working, is not the folders and fences really (tho they are nice), it's the fact that it keeps icons and everything else exactly where I put them on a per-screen resolution basis. Between work and home, I dock my laptop into at least 5 different monitors with varying screen resolutions and aspect ratios, and Fences keeps everything in place without me needing to do anything. This feature ought to be built into Windows itself, TBH. I don't know of any other utility that can do what Fences does in this respect.

Between Fences and my own Rainmeter layout auto-switcher, any combination of resolutions/monitors are handled auto-magically.
