Unable to create status tray icon on Windows 10

[felipecrs]

I know this issue is almost 10 years old, but I am facing this exact same problem after upgrading my application from Electron from 26 to 28.

[13988:0201/145554.280:WARNING:notify_icon.cc(62)] Unable to create status tray icon.
[13988:0201/145554.289:WARNING:notify_icon.cc(143)] Error setting status tray icon image
[13988:0201/145554.296:WARNING:notify_icon.cc(159)] Unable to set tooltip for status tray icon

And, as suggested by @anaisbetts, removing GUID from the tray icon indeed brings the tray icon back.

Note however I can only reproduce this bug in Windows 10, not Windows 11.
