Hello,

When I open Postman using the latest version download,

- It signs me in via browser prompt
- Opens the Postman Desktop Client, and I can see all of my Collections
- As soon as I click on **Send** on any API, **desktop client disappears**.
- Now, when I try to launch it again, the client UI never shows however its running under the Task Manager.

I tried, deleting the folders, in Local and Roaming, killing the postman service in Task Manager, and still the same experience.

Any idea why, and what can I do?

I tried another PC in my organization, and same experience.

Is this bug in Postman app or there is a fix for this?
