Exact same issue. Version 1.71 currently installed. Ran the Purge_StartALL.bat file referenced by AzDude to no avail. Issue remains with all the default settings, prior to re-configuring Start10 with my preferences.
My experience is slightly worse, in that the blank seems to mess with the items in the list not all appearing in alphabetical order. After the blank, I have several items that are out of order, before order is restored after them.
Hello,
Sorry to hear you are having issues. Please try this
To get rid of it that blank icon you have to edit the registry, take ownership of the item, and then delete it.
The item is HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\ControlPanel\NameSpace\{98F2AB62-0E29-4E4C-8EE7-B542E66740B1}
Reboot if needed and recheck. Report back here. Thanks
