Stardock slow to load after Sleep

Windows Version Number: Win 11
App Version: 2.74 business

Whenever my laptop comes out of sleep, it takes 2-3 minutes for the Stardock taskbar to load. I can Alt-Tab to loaded software, but there is no taskbar at all, just a white strip. I have Stardock set to the left side of the screen.

I’ve had a very similar issue after waking my laptop from sleep. The Stardock taskbar sometimes takes a couple of minutes to come back, and for a while I only see a blank/white strip. The other apps are responsive, so it seems to be specifically related to Stardock restarting after sleep. Hopefully this can be looked into in a future update.
