I’ve noticed an issue with the Windows system tray app UI not updating correctly when disabling an exit node.

When I disable an exit node by clicking it again in the tray UI, the checkbox (tick) next to it remains visibly selected, even though it's no longer active. If I open the "Networks" window, it correctly shows that the exit node has been deselected — so the backend state is accurate, but the tray UI doesn't refresh to reflect that change.

This can be confusing and might lead users to think the exit node is still in use when it’s not. Ideally, the tray UI should refresh to show the updated status in real-time.

Let me know if logs or additional info would help — happy to provide!

Thanks again for the great work!

What's your NetBird and Windows versions? I wasn't able to reproduce the issue on a Windows11 machine.
