Nordvpn no Bacground Running Icon on Panel

General Help
1

Greetinog,
Zorin 18 Pro Dash/Dock Top Panel Laout.

Please advise how to restore a Nordvpn Icon on top panel tab when the orogram is running.
I have no indication on the program activity.

By default it is running on startup.

This is a case, a backup running program with Telegram or qBittorent.
Alas, not a Nordvpn.

Thank you in advance

How did You install NordVPN?

Do you see the tray icon when you enter in terminal

nordvpn?

Thanks I think with an command from NordVpn site and it has been updated few days ago,

Today I disabled the VPN icon (well not the icon but an empty space as an icon) and I cannot find any way to revert this action.

After entering nordvpn into terminal nothing appeared in the top panel/bar.

I'm not sure if that can help:
First take a look if Zorin appindicator is enabled. If not, enable it and check if you can see the tray icon when you launch nordvpn.

You could try to disable the Zorin Appindicator gnome extension and try it with this gnome extension:

First install extension manager. Disable the Zorin Appindicator at tab installed. Then browse for the extension (choose shell version 43 for Zorin 17 and shell version 46 for Zorin 18) and install it.

Thank you for taking time.
I have reinstalled Nvpn using the terminal command from Nvpn site and the icon is back.

PS
Where can one find Zorin Appindicator setting ?
