Description V Stuart Foote 2020-10-12 14:02:20 UTC

Logic for showing the UI Picker dialog via Tip-of-the-Day mechanism seem off.

The UI Picker dialog has a Tip-of-the-Day slot, 1 of 233.  It is not showing on initial launch before Start Center fully loads. Nor when launching a module for first instance (bug 137427).

Have to either cycle through all 232 tips to return, or reset the "LastTipOfTheDayID" stanza in the user profile .xcu
