Describe the bug
A clear and concise description of what the bug is.

Pressing the "Refresh" button in the app does not refresh the app's connection to the Drop server. It only refreshes the game list. Otherwise, users need to close out of the app, kill it in the Windows system tray, and start the app back up again to re-establish a connection to the Drop server.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Open app
  2. Press "Refresh button"

Expected behavior
App re-establishes connection to Drop server

Desktop (please complete the following information):

  • OS: Windows 11
  • App Version: I assume latest, but the app doesn't say...

The refresh button refreshing just the library is intended behaviour, but you're right that we should have a button to refresh the full connection, perhaps under the offline button.

You can find the client version by going to settings and then pressing shift on your keyboard, which will add an option for "debug", I believe
