I am having the same problem right now. Upwork app not launching. I have uninstalled and reinstalled it back to no avail. Restarted computer a couple times already. I only get the "how to tips" page every time I open it but it never launches the timer app like it's supposed to be. I'm using Windows 10. Please help.

Sorry I forgot to mention I'm using Windows 10.

Hi Aileen,

Could you please look at the system tray where the Upwork icon should be running? Please right-click on that and go to settings and logout. Once this is done, click on the application icon and log back in.

Thank you.
