I’m having the exact same problem with the Launcher (the secondary, huge file search thing works fine). Same Listary beta (6.3.6.99 beta), but different Windows.

I’m on Windows 11 Pro 25H2, 26200.8246.

After some further troubleshooting I have determined that the launcher is in fact opening but it is being rendered off screen. If I double tap control and blindly type something and hit enter it will open that thing (e.g. if I type in the name of a known document). I went to Options \> General \> Launcher Position \> Reset and that fixed it
