SUMMARY
So, when I use KTimeTracker, by reflex I close it after starting or stopping a timer. I saw a system tray icon and thought it was a great addition. I clicked to open the app again to stop the tracker but it did not start. I tried right-click menu's contents but it was of no use. I have to open the app from my start menu shortcut again to actually open it. knowing I could had a faster way to open the app hurts.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open the app, then close it while the system tray icon option is enabled (so the icon could actually appear).
2. Click on the system tray icon, which should open the app.

OBSERVED RESULT
App not oppening. You have to close the app from the right-click menu of the icon of shut the process forcefully using Task Manager.
Alternatively you can close the tray icon option to avoid the problem completely.

EXPECTED RESULT
App opens smoothly when clicked on the tray icon

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Windows: 10
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Please put more apps available on windows man, I have dug the internet for the Dolphin's binaries. I would love to see more KDE apps on windows so I can try them out before making the change to linux. I am actively using FileLight for example. I would use Elisa on a daily basis too.
