Describe the problem

Netbird starts and connects when Windows starts. However, its icon is missing in the tastbar until you launch it in the start menu.

This ma NetBird version

netbird version 0.27.10

Hi @W1BTR, this is due to the architecture of the client. It contains 2 parts, one is the daemon that is doing all the networking and the GUI (visible with the icon in the sys tray) which is used to control the daemon that is not started by default. This is because some users don't use the GUI but fully manage netbird from the command line.

We can see what we can do to launch both together if the GUI is installed on a device.

Makes sense, ty! Definitely a low priority one.
