This should be fixed by the
https://invent.kde.org/network/kdeconnect-kde/-/commit/80178b8ff80c1e42692b309880d6f1435c62ce4e
. Please poke the CI once so I can be sure.

This issue needs to be fixed appropriately. I wrote a way to kill
dbus-daemon.exe with Win APIs in the kdeconnect-kde source, used here:
https://github.com/KDE/kdeconnect-kde/blob/master/indicator/main.cpp#L106 .
The Function's definition is here:
https://github.com/KDE/kdeconnect-kde/blob/master/indicator/indicatorhelper_win.cpp#L48
. Please let me know if I can be of help and integrate it somewhere in
Craft/ the CI.

As this creates persistent issues for other projects and because a new

I apologize for the mishap and the inconvenience caused to the other
projects. This was not intended.
