No postmaster notifier under windows 11 with other user then the admin
Pre-Submit Checklist:
- Check applicable sources for existing issues:
What happened: No notification icon if I log in with a simple user and not the admin account.
Should we not create a specific user for portmaster which would not depend from the admin or any other user account be like that we would avoid the problem completely ?

Debug Information:
Duplicate- https://github.com/safing/portmaster/issues/835
We currently only support one user at the moment. We are looking into this.
The Portmaster Core Service runs a system service, which always uses the user SYSTEM.
The tray icon is a separate program, executed by the user that logs in. Right now, this creates a PID file globally, which prevents other users from starting it at the same time.
Auto-closing this issue after waiting for input for a month. If anyone finds the time to provide the requested information, please re-open the issue and we will continue handling it.
