The settings window cannot be closed.  KDE Connect app cannot be closed while it’s open.  Not listed in Force Quit.  Only workaround = restart the computer.

When opening the Settings window (from the bottom-left corner where device name and settings are shown), a small window appears with the following options:

Device Name

Bluetooth toggle

Network toggle

About KDE Connect

About KDE

This settings window cannot be closed.

There is no close/minimize button.

It does not appear in the Force Quit menu.

You cannot close the KDE Connect app itself until this small window is gone.

The only workaround is to restart the Mac.

This makes it very frustrating to use, since opening settings effectively forces a restart to recover.
