Microsoft Store app - relaunch after update and retain system tray setting

[Anthony]

Hi,

I'm using Enpass 6.6.1 from Microsoft Store on Windows 10.

I have numerous apps from the Microsoft Store, including Enpass, that I have configured to 'launch with Windows start'

One minor annoyance is that when Enpass updates itself from the Microsoft Store, it does not re-launch itself after the update. So I'll be at a website in my browser and click the Enpass extension button and nothing happens. I then see that Enpass is not running, and then have to go and manually launch it.

I have other Store apps that 're-launch' after update. Could you please consider the same with Enpass?

Then, one other related annoyance is that I drag the Enpass icon out of the hidden system tray icons for easier access as I use it so often. after every update, it reverts to being in the hidden system tray icons. again, I have other apps that retain my preference after update. Could you please consider the same with Enpass?

Hey @Anthony

Apologies for the inconvenience. I have noted your inputs and shared it with the team to look into this.

When you update the 4-5 app simultaneously then in this case app doesn't relaunch, but if you update Enpass app alone successfully it gives a notification message about app update and clicking on it gives an option to launch ( correct me if I am wrong).

Can you do let me know the app name which icon doesn't gets hide after update.

Hope to hear from soon!

I have never seen that behaviour.

I'm not sure you understand the problem I've outlined. The problem is that after every update of Enpass, it always reverts to a hidden icon in the system tray.

I then have to:

1. Go to system tray
2. Click 'show hidden icons'
3. Drag Enpass icon out onto the taskbar

It will then persist as a visible icon whenever launched, until the next time there is an app update when it reverts again.

I have other applications that do not display this behaviour. If I choose to make icon visible in system tray, they persist forever. Across updates, reboots, etc. This is why I have raised this issue as I believe it is possible for Enpass to behave 'correctly' and respect the setting across updates.

Sorry to bother you again! I just want to know the name of the app which icon preserve after the update.

Thanks for your time!

This is still not fixed. 👇

Enpass System Tray Icon Position Forgotten & Doesn't Automatically Open After Every Update

Given it has been 4 years since my original request, this is clearly not a priority (especially as they focus all efforts on their Business version product, which this would also benefit mind you) or simply beyond their dev person (I'm reluctant to say 'team' given the slow rate of updates and fixes) capabilities.
