Description
OS: Windows 7 Enterprise Service Pack 1
When I start Keybase from the start menu, an icon appears in the icon tray near the clock. But when I click on this icon, nothing happens. I can't open the UI. I need to wait a new message in order to click on the desktop notification to access the UI.
