[Solved] NetworkManager Disappearing when enabling VPN

Whenever I click my VPN connection to enable it, it enables correctly and I get connected
Though the Network Manager Applet running within Cinnamon disappears

doing the command

 # systemctl status NetworkManager 

results in this Output

I did some research online but I'm not sure what the cause is.

The applet still disappears

Edit:
Not sure how but it seems to be solved
