SUMMARY

System Tray Icon not visible in Microsoft Store version of KDE Connect

STEPS TO REPRODUCE

1.  open system tray

OBSERVED RESULT

Only a very faint shadow of the KDE Connect icon can be seen.

EXPECTED RESULT

Should be able to see icon.  

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Windows:  Windows 11 version 22H2 build 22621.1776

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

I have circled this in red in the screen shot (attached) as it may not be visible after upload.  Center of circled area responds to mouse right click and a popup appears with phone functions, quit, and configure.

As a new user this completely confused me and I assumed the SMS function was not working.  There does not appear to be a way to initiate the SMS function if KDE Connect is opened from the start menu icon.
