WB getting me kicked in Fortnite

So I just moved to Win10 and I knew already before moving from Win7 that I'd totally need WB to get rid of the trash Win10 design so I purchased it and setup'd it to my taste but now I'm facing an issue.

Fortnite is kicking me because of WB and to be able to play again, I have to disable it and restart my PC  which I don't want to have to do. I have added every Fortnite's processes to the exclusion list but it didn't change anything and I know why, the exclusion settings doesn't seem to be very effective since Fortnite's process is still getting WBLoad.dll injected into it which I'm pretty sure is the reason of the kick.

Can you guys do something about that?

Exclusion stops WindowBlinds doing most things in a process, but it has to load up into the process as it gets loaded into everything without a choice on our side.

Unfortunately for whatever reason the anti cheat system used by Fortnite is incorrectly believing WB is a cheat tool.  Obviously it is not.  We have made some small tweaks for the next update which may help, but in our testing we can't reproduce it as the game itself detects it and blocks the load and thus doesn't hit this issue.

I am able to play fortnite fine on my system running WindowBlinds. Are you running the latest version of WB?

Yes I've got v10.65.

 

Fortnite either use BattlEye or EAC (decided I don't know how, but you can't choose) and on my PC it's using BattlEye which doesn't block WBLoad.dll injection.
But that shouldn't even matter, PUBG, which use BattlEye too. is getting 3 WB dlls injected into it and I'm not getting kicked. That's pretty weird...

I've contacted Epic Game support before posting here but no reply yet, I know Epic can take months before replying ...
