I'm working on a .NET 6.0 WPF application with a tray icon (WinForms). After updating the app via ms-appinstaller, the tray icon's visibility setting in the Taskbar resets, moving it back to the hidden area. The package info (name, publisher, certificate, ProjectGuid) remains the same.
How can I prevent this behavior and maintain the icon's visibility setting across updates?
Thanks for any advice.
