I reported this by email to Simon on 2020-05-08.
Hi Simon,
Today whenever I first launch TextPipe, the ribbon at first displays blank.
See

If I resize the Window (or switch apps & back), it returns to normal.
Not sure why this happens, but it wasn't doing it before my last PC
reboot earlier today.
Best regards,
David

Simon replied on 2020-05-11 as follows:
Sorry, Windows 7 is EOL. Happy to investigate if it happens under Windows 10.
My reply to that was:
I’m quite aware that Win7 is EOL.
With the lockdown continuing, it may be some time before I buy a new PC.
My Toshiba laptop is 10 years old.
It’s not worth trying to install Win10.
It would be too risky.

My current workaround is to keep the ribbon minimised.
That seems to work satisfactorily and hides the annoyance caused by seeing a blank ribbon.
What we need to know is whether the issue is unique to Windows 7 or also happens in Windows 10 & Windows 8.2?

I believe is unique to Windows 7
