That doesn't work either!

My version (3.4
.8.0) or so it says.
I used that contact 'form', and after several days, received a reply telling me to wait. I'd like help HERE without being told to "wait".
- I paid to rent&test anti-beacon for a year.
- It's not starting as it should and the Task manager shows it to be a odd way of startup at boot. It does not start/run/activate/burp or ...
- I have to remember to run it at every Boot/Reboot. I created a Task to remind me. Shouldn't have to.
- Even then, since I know it doesn't run at Boot, there is no way of knowing if it does anything except look kewt.
How long, as the clock ticks down to 'Time re-rent', do I need to "wait"?
DETAILS:
I contacted SB support, and via email was told to wait. While still waiting (12 days now) I see that (
Announcements says there is a update/upgrade/fix/patch whatever it is, to "3.4" but 3.4 what? 3.4.1, 3.4.2, 3.4.xxxxxx? SBAB says I am using the latest, but there is not much to trust right now.
There are too many items throughout the GUI with a blue link (standard in the day) and many that are blue links to some stuff, and blue links that do nothing. I'm sorry to say, it's a messy incomplete and rushed GUI.
I have to run it twice or more after boot because first time through after each boot (cold or hot) the 'wheelie' only shows 74 of 118 then run again and 183/184 then 118/118 then 183/184 then finally, 184/184 and the wheelie is different each time too. What to believe?
I see I paid to have the honor of being a paying volunteer beta tester - I feel 'had'. I thought I was renting a working app/application/program/script -- whatever.
The Task settings are very basic and simple so why does it not respond to the Task scheduler?
When will there be a completed working version that is beyond the public beta-test stage? It IS beta if any dev throws it out incomplete and with known issues to wait for feedback, and feed back to the testers to 'wait'.
I think SB should disable the paid version countdown-to-re-rent until it's working properly. I know it never will run perfectly in all devices, but this is a simple startup and messy GUI and the clock is tricking away the days "to wait" and I have nothing for those lost days on my rental.
Disappointed that I wasn't told it's a beta version I was renting.
SUMMARY: The beta looks pretty - but it's a wallflower that looks 'kewl' and 'purty' but that doesn't mean it's dancing.
