TrayIcon on MacOS 26.1 can't open it's GUI-Website

I installed Duplicati 2.2.0.0 on MacOS 26 Tahoe and it worked fine. But now I discovered that the trayIcon is no more able to open the browser Window to access the GUI. The browser claims that 127.0.0.1 provided an incorrect answer and showed ERR_SSL_PROTOCOL_ERROR.

In installed MacOS 26.1, when it came out. Not sure the issue is related to this. I updated to Duplicati 2.2.0.1, but this resulted in the same problem.

Duplicati is still performing its scheduled backups. But I can’t access the GUI-

Any help would be appreciated.

Found the issue: HTTP got automatically changed into HTTPS by the browser.

Great that it was fixed, but do you know why it was changed? If this is something the browser does, we should fix it.

My fault. I am using OLW to chose a Webbrowser for a ULR and OLW changes http automatically to https. But maybe the documentation could be a little clearer on how the tray icon works. i.e. that it uses http with the temporary password as default. Then I probably would have spotted the issue earlier.
