you need to close the **first** window and then the second window also closes and the app quits entirely. ---

Sequoia 15.3 (24D60) for me it’s not a recent phenomenon. It always was like this since I have been using Anytype (when the public beta was introduced in 2023). ---

here at 0:09 you closed another window. was this your first main window perhaps (that you then also closed at last)? ![image](https://community-static.anytype.io/original/3X/6/4/6421194c390b4c042f53718679fe48e506968ecb.png) in the video it is not entirely clear what is the initial window and what are the afterwards opened ones ---

Interestingly this doesn’t happen on my SO’s machine. I think it is still Sonoma but I don’t think this is the reason. ---

@Razor I found the issue. It happens when the system tray is disabled. ---
