Most Of Tray Icons Are Missing

Currently running beta 2 of the Windowblinds 10 and love it.  But, I am having a problem with many of my system tray icons being missing when I click on the spot for them to appear from their hidden state.  (I usually have 5 to 7 icons in the tray; yet, I can only see 2 of them.)  I have noticed this problem continues even if I move the taskbar into various locations on the screen and there appears to be no way to gain access to those icons.  It happens on all skins; so, this appears to be a Windowblinds issue.

Specs of my system:

Microsoft Surface Pro 3 running Windows 10 with all updates.  missing icons

If WB is not running the system tray icons appear?

Yes, all of my icons are visible if WB is not running.  But, as soon as I change to a skin in WB, I get the crazy issue with only 2 showing up like in the pic I posted.  Also, note that one of my icons appears to be going partially under the taskbar as well.  Beginning to wonder if it is an issue with WB on a Surface Pro 3???

There is a Stardock bat file that will purge Wb from your PC and then you can reinstal.  It does not delete your settings so they'll be as they were when you reinstall.  Below are the instructions for use:

The following tool will purge the application. 

**IMPORTANT** Please save any open documents/work and close out all of your applications including browsers.

Please follow this link: 

http://sd.stardock.com/zubaz/apps/Purge_WB.bat

Save the file to your desktop, right click it and select "Run as Administrator" if you're on Vista/7/8/8.1/10

If you are running Windows 8/10, you may be notified that Windows is protecting your PC. Select "More info" and then "Run anyway". 

Reboot the computer and reinstall the application. Note: It is important to get the most recent version of the application.

Sorry... I've tried that twice and still no change.

I suggest you open a support ticket and let them know what you've already tried.

I've tried; but, I get the following message:  "We encountered a problem (cross-site request forgery detected); please try again."  Could that be because I created this specific forum post on Stardock's site?

I"d just suggest trying again.
