Notifications are not working in release build

[egebilecen]

Hello. I am currently having a problem with notification API. I am able to send notifications from Javascript side in dev build, they also appear as if they are sent from windows powershell. But when I build the application for release, notifications are not sent. Does anyone knows what would be the cause of this?

My tarui.conf.json:

{
    "build": {
        "beforeBuildCommand": "npm run build",
        "beforeDevCommand": "npm run dev",

So I tested my app on Linux and notification is worked fine. I believe this is only problem in Windows.

[FabianLars]

they also appear as if they are sent from windows powershell

That's intentional

But when I build the application for release, notifications are not sent

Did you install the app (via setup.exe or MSI) first? It needs to be installed for the appid based icon to work.

Okay, I just now tested it. If I installed the application through MSI, notification is sent. However, when I installed the application through NSIS (which is setup.exe), it still doesn't work, no notification is being sent.

Interesting, could you open a normal issue about this then? I don't have access to my computer for a few more days and don't wanna forget. Thank you.

I will, thank you! I created the issue: #8512
