You should only have the system tray app running from C:\Program Files\Jellyfin\Server\jellyfin-windows-tray.

Try disabling the other system tray app and jellyfin.exe.

Also, try reinstalling with the latest installer (.exe) from: https://repo.jellyfin.org/files/server/w...ble/amd64/ if the above action doesn't work.
