Description

Using keybase 1.0.16-20160527074935+7c9e507 on Windows, the client will log in, but will not connect to kbfs, nor will show a taskbar icon (not sure if this is a related issue, if not I can make a separate one)

Research direction

Start by reproducing the Windows client behavior with Keybase 1.0.16-20160527074935+7c9e507, checking whether login succeeds while KBFS and the taskbar icon remain unavailable. Use log ID 9dd8b4e4ac3efaf4ff2a901c to investigate; no files or tests are named, so done is restoring the KBFS connection and expected taskbar icon behavior.
