Summary
After upgrading to version 4.3.2 of the Windows Desktop Client, the client no longer starts up automatically after PC reboot, even though the checkmark in settings is on.

Environment

• Operating System: Windows 10 Version 1809
• Mattermost Desktop App version: 4.3.2
• Mattermost Server version: 5.18.0

Steps to reproduce
Install version 4.3.2 of the client.

Expected behavior
The client starts up automatically after PC reboot.

Observed behavior
The client does not start-up automatically on reboot.

Possible fixes
Reverting the client installation to 4.3.1 fixes the problem for me.

Starting with 4.3.2 the app reverts back to the original intended behavior to start minimized.
Can you check if the application appears in the task bar when you use 4.3.2?

I have the same issue - app not show on startup (is visible in tray). I have to run app manually/click tray icon then it will show up.

BTW "Run minimized" and "Minimize to tray on close" options are required to add in settings.
Now app run in background but after showing up I cant hide it to tray only.

I had this same "issue" as well, requesting adding the same settings as krychu90.

Perhaps an additional setting could be added to allow Mattermost to open the window on startup instead of being minimized to the system tray.

I still have the same issue with 4.5.2.
