### UniGetUI Version
2026.2.7
### Windows version, edition, and architecture
Windows 11 Pro 25H2 - 26200.9168
### Describe your issue
UniGet is set to auto start when I login.
I am finding that it doesn't open minimized to the system tray, and instead tries to start with a Window in the foreground.
However, this window is completely blank and cannot be closed. I have to close UniGet from the system tray, then reopen it.
### Steps to reproduce the issue
Login to Windows with UniGet set to autostart
### UniGetUI Log
