taskbar hides/ upon starting of 7+ Taskbar Tweaker.This happens only if the below conditions are satisfied

1. If the option "hide start menu" is checked in 7+ Taskbar Tweaker and

2. If the software "max tray player" which a taskbar player if being showed up on taskbar.

This only happens in windows 10-64bit. I have installed the same softwares in windows 7-64bit on another system but there is not such bug.

I could reproduce the problem. It's an incompatibility, in which @MAX Tray Player modifies the position of the task list, the tweaker adjusts its position to be shifted to the left (to compensate for the missing start button), which for some reason triggers another position update from @MAX Tray Player, and it goes like this in an infinite loop. Soon, the task list slides all the way to the left until it's no longer visible.

I don't see anything inherently wrong that the tweaker is doing. I'm not sure about @MAX Tray Player, as I didn't see their code, and I didn't spend too much time reversing. You can contact them and ask to look at it. You can refer them to the tweaker's relevant code, it might be helpful for them:
