Hi Markus,

thanks for this great tool. By mistake I disabled the system tray icon and now the configuration screen is not reachable. Is there any way to reset the configuration?

best regards

Markus

@TrampiPW Sorry for late response. Thank you for the feedback and let us know about that you found the option settings via the systemtray icon right click! We've heard this before, so you're not the only one. Especially since #401 when we not show option by default in menu, then there were users reporting that they can not find the option menu any longer. I'm just thinking if we should show all 4 extra function by default?

Because i have also these 4 functions enabled, normally the default settings are as i use them: 2023-07-29 10_43_35-Window So consider to enable all by default, because i think also for first user is good to know that it exists there. Maybe now i think first time user opens the options menu we can show a hint that you can also open the options menu via systemtray icon right click

e.g. here is one more

i just think maybe when user removes the option 'Show in Taskbar' then we can show a hint, that settings can be opened via systemtray icon right click, maybe also with a screenshot in a dialog where he presses then 'OK'. Maybe then also show that hint when removing 'Show function key Settings'
