Tray menu does not function after reboot

Hello Twonky-experts (and others, I guess),

I'm new to Twonky and new to this forum, so I would like to say "Hi" first.

Yesterday I downloaded Twonky Server 6.0.38 to try some media-streaming to my new Philips 3D TV (42PFL7676H). I installed Twonky on my W7 64-bit i7 (is there no 64-bit version of Twonky yet?) and everything started fine. I could immediately see Twonky on my TV and play video's from my PC.

However, after I rebooted my PC, the tray-icon-menu does not work any more (not even the tooltip). When I try the shortcut that was placed on my desktop, that does not work either. I think that's a bug? I can use the web-browser to see the TwonkyServer configuration, but hey: a bug is a bug, right?

I tried re-installing the TwonkyServer, with the same result: works fine the first time, not after a reboot.

I havent run twonky on x64

Not sure if it is a shortcut issue, but
what happens if you launch twonkymediaserverconfig.exe
mannually from explorer

another thing to try is to run twonkymediaserverconfig.exe
in compatability mode for windows 7 or one of the other os choices

OK, there seems to be more to it: this morning the tray-menu works fine, after starting my PC. So it runs fine on x64 or so it seems. About the twonkymediaserverconfig.exe: the process shows in Task Manager all the time.

Now I wonder: could it have something to do with the connection to my TV? I'm still experimenting a bit, since the TV only supports specific video-formats. The other day I tried a few that didn't work: maybe Twonky got 'screwed up' by that?

I'll post again when I have a clue...
