NextDNS for Windows 3.0.11 not responding after boot

NextDNS - 2022-12-06.log

For a few days now (possibly after autoupdate to 3.0.11), after every system boot - restart or shutdown into power on - NextDNS shows its "Settings" window with missing UI elements (1st screenshot) the window title then changes to "Settings (Not Responding)" (2nd screenshot). Config ID is displayed but it has text selection applied (white text on blue background).

[Screenshots edited to not reveal config ID]

Logs attached.

NextDNS starts correctly when launched manually (from Start menu).

    This will be fixed in the next revision. Try to open the settings via the systray icon instead.

      NextDNS it's fine after it's force-closed and launched from Start - the only thing is, that it's really annoying to do every time, also it kind of defeats the purpose of having a system-wide DNS app if there is a window (no pun intended) during which requests might not be filtered (dynamic IP address + IPv4).

      IronHerald you can run system-wide with no UI using this installation mode: https://help.nextdns.io/t/83hsj8t/windows-client-mass-deployment-guide

    This should be fixed in the beta channel (3.0.12). Would you be able to test it and confirm?
