Describe the bug

When I restart my Mac Mini the Hidden Bar dialog appears at startup. I would like it to run at login, but not show the dialog.

Steps to reproduce

Restart Mac

Expected behaviour

It should start and minimize to the menu bar.

This doesn't seem to work as expected on macOS Sonoma 14.7.4 and Hidden Bar 1.8 (12): even when this is disabled the preference window is always shown at launch.

Okay. I don't have access to a macOS 14 device so I can't troubleshoot any other solutions. I've had similar issues in another app that were helped by removing the app from the mac's "open at login" list while still keeping "open at login" selected in the app.

Accordingly, you may leave "Start Hidden Bar when I log in" selected in Hidden Bar but remove it from Settings > General > Login Items & Extensions > Open at Login and also uncheck "open at login" in the dock (below).

Don't know if it'll help or not.
