Description
I installed a custom app adding /home/$USER/winapps/apps/cvm-cctv-manager/info:
//
NAME="CCTV-MANAGER"
FULL_NAME="CVM-CCTV-MANAGER"
WIN_EXECUTABLE="C:\Program Files (x86)\CVM CCTV Manager\Client\MonitorClient.ex>
CATEGORIES="WinApps;Application"
ICON="icon.svg"
MIME_TYPES="application/cvm-cctv-manager;"
//
In the application bar on linux, for any app, i correctly see an icon ( i think it's FreeRDP icon):
but if i run the custom app from the application list, the app will run but i dont see any icon on the application bar. This is annoying bc if i minimize an app, i dont know how to reset.
What i miss to configure? Is there any way to fix?.
Thanks.

Research direction
Start by inspecting the custom app definition at /home/$USER/winapps/apps/cvm-cctv-manager/info and compare how it is handled when launched from the application list versus the application bar. Reproduce the CCTV-MANAGER launch and verify that its application-bar icon appears and remains usable when the app is minimized.
