WindowFX incompatible with Unity Editor (2019+)

Ree?!

So, to avoid going into another long-problem post, the short and not-so-sweet of it is, I an aspiring game dev using Unity, and I love WindowFX. Unfortunately, it appears, I cannot have both. 

If anyone knows a workaround for this niche problem, please let me know.

Any time WindowFX is enabled, Unity fails to render anything other than the standard menu line. 
I have no idea what could be interfering. 

Screenshot attached.

Hi there, I'm also experiencing this issue in WindowFX6. I could share a screenshot, but it's identical to yours. If it's any help though, I notice that the mouse/tooltips are still interacting, so it's purely a screen rendering issue. :)

 

To replicate the bug, I can turn on Windowfx and see this issue, and then turn it off to see Unity working fine.

Hello,

Sorry to hear you are having trouble.

What if you exclude it:

Hi, actually, at the time I was having trouble, I had already excluded it. Running WindowFX at all while running Unity 2018 or 2019 caused problems. I've moved on to 2020 and 2021 now for most projects. I'll give it a shot and report back in a couple of days.
