Thanks for the report.

Additionally, items in the Quick Access widget will also be duplicated.

This happens to me, but with the tags.

100% of the time I open the app, all the elements are duplicated.

In the latest version 3.9.2.0.

Thank you for your feedback, this issue is resolved for Quick Access in the latest preview build.

Can someone confirm whether that is the case or not?

[Jack251970]

I just do not like to use preview version during daily usage and I will check this problem when the released version comes out.

[yaira2]

The preview version can be used alongside the stable release.

Can confirm the issue is not happening but tested it in one system only have to check in some others as well

Thanks! As a side note, you'd notice a much faster loading and reloading compared to the sidebar.

I assume this issue is fixed for 4.0.11 based on last few comments. If not someone can comment.

[RinineFV2]

In my case, if I enable the tags widget, the entire application keeps hanging for quite a while (at least a full minute) when I open the home page—whether in a new tab if it wasn't already loaded, or as the startup page—and it still shows duplicated elements as seen in the image.

If I disable the tags widget, everything works fine.

Preview version 4.0.11.0

We will continue tracking that in your issue, linked above
