I can confirm this on my computer : Windows 10Pro 20H2 | Os build 19042.985

I tried clean installs of both last release and master builds :
kdeconnect-kde-21.04.1-597-windows-msvc2019_64-cl.exe
kdeconnect-kde-master-773-windows-msvc2019_64-cl.exe

When launching kdeconnect, I can see that kdeconnect-indicator.exe is running in taskmanager.
However, there is no icon interact with.

Connectivity seems to be working though, as I can send clipboard from my phone to my computer and remote input is working too.

I have seen similar reports on the forum : https://forum.kde.org/viewtopic.php?f=59&t=171264&hilit=kdeconnect

I just pushed a patch to fix this. Download build no. 775 or later should have the issue fixed.

P.S.: double clicking the indicator now opens up the configure menu! =D
