Description

When I minimize the app to tray, the KeePassHTTP browser extension (firefox and chrome) doesn't work, no autofill. It works if I do the usual minimize of the window or if the window is open. I'm on Windows.

To Reproduce

  1. Minimize app to system tray (window's close button)
  2. Go to a login URL, on firefox or chrome (which is using KeePassHTTP)
  3. The fields are not being autofilled

Contributor guide

Research direction
Inspect the tray minimize event handler and ensure KeePassHTTP server continues to run when window is hidden.
