So I've installed the app, managed some shortcuts and chose to hide the menu bar icon. Also removed standard shortcut for accessing main menu, thinking that by launching the app again I will get it open - like the most apps do.
But when I try to do this - nothing happens.
As a result - I can't access settings/snippets/etc.
The app still works - the single shortcut of accessing history - so no crashes and stuff.

I've tried to remove the app completely, including ~/Library/Application Support/com.clipy-app.Clipy/ folder and cache.
After removing everything I could find related to the app and reinstalling it - noting has changed. Still no icon on the menu bar, still default shortcut for accessing menu doesn't work.

I even created a new user on my mac, installed the app here - everything worked as expected, from fresh start - and tried to copy com.clipy-app.Clipy folder to the main user - no result.

Is there even a way I could somehow reinstall the app and reset it's settings without creating a new user?

Thanks so much for help.
