Try this:
Make sure the reduced height windows option is ticked. Then press the windows key and tap P until "extend" is highlighted. Go to your resolution settings screen (control panel > Appearence and personalisation > display > adjust resolution) and the box at the top should show 2 displays. Under the "display" button, choose screen 2, set it to slightly wider than your current screen and in the box at the top drag it above screen 1 and save. This should allow you to move your cursor above the level of your actual screen. In this way, you can drag the aurora window up so that the bottom buttons are shown. It isn't perfect... IIRC, my 7hundredsomething height laptop requires the top half of the system view buttons to be cut off, but it's definitely playable like that.
