Ok, so after a good 45 minutes of researching the issue, trying different fixes, etc...I have found the solution. I've turned off notifications and stripped the menu of it's existence.
As Glaive so accurately put it:
"could you fix it: yes"
"do you want to take two days out of your schedule to fix it: no"
Notifications will return in the next version of Elektron-Users, but for now you shouldn't have anymore issues
