I follow Juan's steps detailed in his post on the Pixinsight forum to produce a star mask

If you find that some of the larger stars are not include in the generated mask you can use Range selection to select the larger stars, add some softness to the selected regions with its "softness" slider. Then use Pixel Math to add the Range mask and Star mask together to create your final star mask.
Works for me.
