Cause: Not signed.

Solution: Click "", then click "", and follow the prompts to continue installation.

Cannot launch / no UI / crashes / tray icon only

Cause: The Tauri framework depends on WebView2. If WebView2 is uninstalled or disabled, the UI cannot be displayed. Typical behavior: the app starts, but clicking tray menu items does nothing.

Solution:

  • If Edge was disabled by third-party software, check whether WebView2 was also disabled and re-enable WebView2.
  • If WebView2 was uninstalled, download the WebView2 installer and reinstall it.
  • If the issue still exists, try launching the app in Windows 7 compatibility mode.

WebView2 cannot be installed properly

Cause: Windows automatic updates may be turned off.

Solution:

  • Enable automatic updates.
