### Bug description
When Nextcloud Desktop start (on startup or manually) it gets reduced to the system tray, and I can't open the window. The client is running and my files are synchronized, but I would like to add another account and I can't open the configuration window to do it.
When I place my cursor on the Nextcloud icon of the system tray, the window preview is transparent.
I can however open the general configuration window (french version)
### Steps to reproduce
Install the Nextcloud client, configure an account, and try to open the Nextcloud Desktop configuration menu to add another one.
The window does not open.

The file/sync configuration window should open
