App disappeared into tray

[bshor]

I have Youtube-Music installed into Garuda Linux (arch-derived) with Gnome Desktop.

I experimented with the tray and hiding the app, and now I can't see or control the app except with my keyboard shortcut keys. There is no tray icon for control. I even tried uninstalling and reinstalling, but the same problem.

The only thing I see is a small version in notifications. It looks like this:

But there's no way bring up the app. Perhaps tray doesn't work with Gnome, but in any case I want the plain old interface back.

check out config.json - it should be in the temporary app folder (not sure on linux but on windows its in AppData/Roaming/Youtube Music

in that file, find the line that says "tray": true, and change it to "tray": false,

Great hint! I found config.json in ~/.config/Youtube Music. I had to set tray to false and visible to true. I killed all existing processes and started up the app and it all worked.

I think Tray is only for Windows, so this is a bit of a danger for Linux users.
