Major problems with WB on Windows 10

Major problems with WB on Windows 10

I just installed WB on my new Windows 10 laptop.
WB version: 10.8.4

Windows version: build 18362
The machine is a Microsoft Surface Laptop (Core i5)

At first installation, it was "sort of" working... some things didn't display correctly, but it was mostly usable.
I also copied all my .wba files over from my Windows 7 machine, and tried installing some of my favorite skins,
starting with SetiGreen and WoodXP.

When I installed SetiGreen, it caused the entire screen to go pure white, including the taskbar, which was not accessible at all.
I used Alt-Tab to get back to WB, and tried loading one of the default themes, Precision, but that did nothing.
So I then powered off the computer and restarted it.
It came back up only half-trashed - About half of the taskbar is using the theme, the other half is just bright white.

Cortana is usable, but is doing a pop-up menu that was not previously there...

I then loaded WoodXP.wma... I did not get the usual popup notification saying that the new theme was available, but it *did* show up in the WB listing, and I loaded it.  The main problem at this point, is that the taskbar is *really* messed up; part of it is using the WB theme, and the rest is just blank white. 

What is going on here???

That should have the fix in it.
