upgrade to latest version, I set in config that I want to have an icon in status bar, and that joplin should start minimised.

Now when I run joplin, icon in status bar is unavailable and joplin is minimised thus I am even unable to configure it back to not minimise.

any suggestions? gnome 3.36.3, joplin 1.3.18 and 1.4.7 behave the same.

I have installed `sqlitebrowser` and edited `settings` table manually. I have Joplin back. But why icon disappears I still have no idea, I won't enable it until it gets fixed.
