Open task manager and go to startup apps. Then, select KDE Connect and enable it.

How did you install it? I installed it through the offline installer and it worked.

I installed offline, this file: kdeconnect-kde-release_25.12-5778-windows-cl-msvc2022-x86_64.exe

I can put it myself at startup but problem is the program window will; be opene and it should be minimized in system tray area! It needs a switch to launch at minimized that I do not know it.
