Hey guys  
Would anyone be able to answer me?  
I installed the N8N Desktop (1.9.0) on Windows 10, but when the installation was complete, the application did not open, but I noticed that it was working in the background, looking in the Windows task manager.  
The same thing happens when I click on the n8n icon.  
Does anyone know how to solve this problem?  
Much obliged!  
Paul

Hey @Paulo_Pyk,

Welcome to the community 🎉

Can you try the steps here: [Windows Desktop app is not opened - #2 by MutedJam](http://community.n8n.io/t/windows-desktop-app-is-not-opened/19066/2) so we can see if there is any output that would suggest what is going on.
