Tray icon won't launch after update

[ts678]

@elmernet

The trayicon opens, pause and quit work, but opening duplicate.gui.trayicon.exe crashes.

That’s a bug that’s fixed in testing releases that came out after 2.1.0.5. You can try:

@ts678

Since a fix was done, maybe the developer knows of workaround until non-testers get this?

There is no real workaround for this, but you can use the TrayIcon from the canary and connect to the stable release if you like.

@elmernet

Is there still no solution for the trayicon when installed as a service?

There’s a solution (Canary test release), and messy workaround. No new Stable. Unlike 2.1.0.5 which solved severe issues in 2.1.0.4, this issue seems “less” hot, because it can be worked around. Maybe the dev will forecast next release plan?

Previous one looked like a hotfix release. I hope next one has longer testing time, although admittedly that testing gets in the way of getting it released more quickly.
