The problem happens no matter which connected device selected. Running on completely updated Windows 11, with Windows and Android devices.

Same here, Windows 11 24H2 + kconnnect 25.04.0

I will try downgrading kconnect and see if it works.
The funny thing is if kconnect is minimized to tray, then I will be able to right click on the tray icon and access some of the Plugin Settings like file browsing

But I don't know how to minimize kconnect to tray manually
:(
Comment 6 kde.overhand731 2025-06-22 20:17:46 UTC 
OK I just installed kconnect-nightly via scoop. The problem is gone.
kconnect version 25.07.70
Plugin Setting menu is opening correctly
