Hi there, Thanks for this nice piece of software! After using wireguird for a year on Linux Mint without any problems, I switched to pure Debian 12 with GNOME. I installed wireguird and it worked as expected for a day. Now the GUI doesn't appear(expect popup for new version, even if already installed). After uninstalling and reinstalling, no difference. Not even when I start it with sudo. See attached log. Last thing I did was check "MultipleTunnels" and maybe "StartOnTray". I don't know how to undo this. /opt/wireguird/wireguird.settings seems to be empty (0 bytes). Any advice? Thanks, Sebastian

Some progress:

  1. After reinstalling Debian and GNOME it works again. ({"MultipleTunnels":true,"StartOnTray":false,"CheckUpdates":true,"Debug":false})
  2. Settings are found on "/root/wireguird.settings" (populated) and "/opt/wireguird/wireguird.settings" (empty)
  3. After checking "StartOnTray" it won't appear anymore after starting it.
  4. After editing "/root/wireguird.settings" back to ""StartOnTray":false" it works again as expected.

I assume because GNOME has no "Tray"(?) Wireguird just don't show as running.

The GNOME extension "wireguard-vpn-extension" works well for me on Debian 12 with GNOME 43.9.
