Research direction

Start by reviewing the attached PowerToysReport ZIP and reproducing the behavior from the Settings area: double-click the tray icon, then single-click it to open Quick Access. Trace the tray, Settings, and Quick Access entry points; done means a single click opens Quick Access without an error and a double click opens PowerToys settings.
