Status Bar remains blank -- no solution?

I see that several users have reported blank and flickering status bar. And no solutions.

I have had the same problem since installing Media Pro a couple of weeks ago.

Is there another way to discover status information?
The program is crippled with no status information.

  I had posted this a week or 2 ago.
  
  It looks like somehow MPro is associated to Windows appearance settings.
  If you allow more enhanced settings in Windows, it should come up.
  
  Maybe this is due to EMedia migration?
  
  I originally disable visual enhancements in Windows as it takes more memory. But due to the association to it, I have turned some on in custom settings.

  thanks for the response, Raffi3
  
  Can you say what enhancements you have enabled in windows -- I can't see anything on the Display Properties menu that does the trick
  
  thanks

  Once you are in Control Panel, goto performance info and tools. Then select Adjust visual effects on left tab.
  
  you should see a pop-up with options to select from. I have all of them unchecked except for
  
  _Save taskbar thumbnail previews
  _Show thumbnails instead of icons
  _Use visual styles on windows and buttons
  
  This is enough for my system and Media Pro to show the info bar.
