Flow Launcher no longer shows up in system tray

See original GitHub issue

After installing, Flow Launcher allowed me to open the settings through the icon in the system tray. Once I installed the “Google Search” plugin the icon no longer shows up, giving me no way to configure the launcher.

Attempted to uninstall, clean registry, and reinstall… even restarted and no luck,

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

Install Google Search Plugin
Restart Flow Launcher

Windows build number: Version 10.0.22000.527 Flow Launcher version: v1.9.2

You can also access setting via query settings. We will take a look on why the icon disappeared.

Nope, it didn’t. I uninstalled and deleted the files in %AppData folder that seemed to be the immediate fix once reinstalling.

I feel like it is because of some issue in the setting that block the setting to generate? Not quite sure the detail reason, but I will take a check while adjusting code in the future
