Problem Description

Hey I love Flow Lancher, I've been using it for a long time in windows, however recently I've been wanting to access the settings, but the settings window doesn't open.

I've tried to open it from the system tray, and from flow launcher settings in the search bar, but it doesn't open.

I reinstalled FL but I still get this problem.

Hey @VictoriousRaptor thank you for your help. I was gonna try that but all of the sudden the settings window came back, perhaps it was an update.

If I get this issue again I'll come back here to try your suggestion thank you.

For now all good, thanks again

I just resolved mine i think...I am using two monitors and i noticed the settings was showing up in the ctrl-alt-tab switcher, so I did win+p PC screen only, and the settings screen was back on my laptop display, went to settings, display, multiple displays and cycled through my displays and the settings have returned. Almost panicked and revo uninstalled everything 😪
