(3.5.4) Crash in Windows 8 Preview when displaying context menu

[tomaskafka]

Hi, I installed Battery Bar 3.5.4 on Windows 8 Preview, and I get error when I right-click the bar. This means that I have no way of invoking options, and am forced to use the bar with the default settings.

   

Also, when I click 'Send Error report' in an error window, The form gets stuck with unpainted fields, explorer stops responding, and after a while, explorer restarts (together with battery bar).

   

Could you please test it in some virtual machine? It seems like catching some unexpected error could fix Battery Bar on Windows 8...

PS: I am using BB Pro, totally worth the money, but I'm moving onto Win 8 now...

This has been reported for some time now, but no response so far.

Exactly the same issue here. I see lots of posts, but no response yet.

I'm working on getting access to the RTM release so I can work on this. I started back on the consumer preview but I disliked the OS so much I ended up not wanting to work with it. Clearly, though, I know this needs to get resolved. I'm aiming to make a Windows 8 version as well, hopefully some type of live tile.
