On Windows 11, the sidebar toggle button in the top-left area of Claude Code Desktop is completely hidden behind the native window control buttons (minimize, maximize, close). This makes it impossible to open the sidebar by clicking the button.
What Should Happen?
The sidebar toggle button should be accessible and not overlap with native window controls.
