Menubar Icon disappeared

Bugs or Unexpected Behavior

Note:
Yes, I did update to latest Alpha version and also did extensive tries to restore the icon.

Describe the bug
The icon in the menubar suddenly disappeared and has been missing since. Tried every different setting (including system restarts), and also tried the “unhide all icons” action. I didn’t change any config. The only thing that was strange is, that I was running an AppleScript in the background (doing some rsync) and all the functions of BTT seems to be on hold (all the triggers did not execute) (all other background AppleScripts are working fine). After the script finished, everything went back to normal expect of the menubar icon.

Affected input device (e.g. MacBook Trackpad, Magic Mouse/Trackpad, Touch Bar, etc.): MacBook

Device information:

  • Type of Mac: MacBook Pro 16” M4 Pro
  • macOS version: 26.3.1
  • BetterTouchTool version: 6.229

Additional information (e.g. crash logs, related issues, etc.):

I really appreciate all the hard work, BTT is a very great app and incredible usefull!

Thanks and Best, Sebastian

on macOS tahoe it's easy to accidentally hide menubar icons by dragging them out of the bar. You can only bring it back by enabling it again in System Settings -> Menubar

Thank for the quick reply. This is of course enabled (and I enabled and disabled it several times, including doing (system-)restarts). Is there a way to provide helpful logs?

Oh damn, now I found it in the system settings of macOS. Now I got it. Thanks again. That solves the issue :+1:
