Description
The application once minimized to tray seems to be unable to re-show for me. Clicking the taskbar icon or right/left clicking the tray icon just re-hides or attempts to show the application.
Here's an example of me spamming right and left click, I get one flash of the application window in the lower right but it quickly disappears again.
If I force-relocate the invisible-but-focused window to another monitor with Win+Shift+Left/Right, I get a blank cutout of where the window should be in the lower right of the screen.
