Nothing happening

When I try and launch Rswitch, nothing happens and no new menu bar appears. Am I doing something wrong?

Since you've provided no information on your operating system version or any error logs, I'd have to assume so.

Not sure if the original issue relates to this.

When I downloaded RSwitch v1.7.0 on my macOS Catalina 10.15.4 system, I was a bit surprised not to see a "classical' window opening, but a new icon in my (top) menu bar. Is this the expected behaviour of RSwitch? If so, this new icon could have been missed by the OP.

That might be it. This is def "a menubar app" vs a GUI-app (though it can present UX elements for various options)

I have a similar experience. Although I do see the RSwitch icon in the menu bar, it is greyed out (see image). When I click on the icon it disappears. I saw a blog post that suggested the app needs Full Disk Access via Preferences > Security and Privacy, but the behaviour is the same when I grant it access. I'm running MacOS 10.15.6 Catalina and the RSwitch download was 1.7.0. The only 'error log' I could see was this plist file (see image), but I've no idea whether it's relevant. Looking forward to using what must be a very useful app :)

#ty for identifying a potential bug!

the last element in the plist says there's a crash file (meaning something in RSwitch caused a significant error condition whilst running). If that file is still around at that path, can you attach it to the issue? (pls)

Sorry, I now realize you meant the .crash file. Having a bit of trouble figuring out how to get hold of it. Here it is...

I am having the same exact issue. Icon appears greyed out in menu bar and disappears when I click on it. I am using MacOS 10.15.7 Catalina and RSwitch 1.7.0.

Sorry to bring this up much later, but has anyone found a solution?

Thank you!
