Unable to open Minimwatch after upgrade to Mac OS Sequoia

[simoncn]

Thanks for trying this and reporting the details of what happened. The "pale red" icon is actually grey but perhaps appears pale red when viewing it against the blue background of your menu bar (your post #25).

This problem of MinimWatch and/or MinimServer not being able to access the local network after the Mac is rebooted was reported by users on Sequoia 15.2 and I saw the same problem. Updating to Sequoia 15.3 cured the problem for me and other users and I have not seen it again. I have tried the same steps as you on Sequoia 15.5 and I am not getting the local network error message.

When this problem was occurring on Sequoia 15.2, the workaround after a reboot was to open Privacy & Security > Local Network and toggle MinimWatch and/or MinimServer off and on. This made the local network accessible. At present I can only suggest that you use this workaround.
