Tray Icons are annoying.
Sunday, March 5, 2006 by Adamness | Discussion: Personal Computing
I have a good amount of icons in the tray icon area. Next to the clock. You know what I mean. I don't need to see all of them, so most of them are set to 'Hide always.' Usually they obey, but there are a few icons that change settings themselves. Norton, WindowBlinds, and network icons (Local Area Connection or Wireless Connections) are the main culprits. I have them set to 'hide always,' but when I restart, they come up set to 'show always, or 'hide when inactive.'
Is there any way to make my settings stick?

Window Blinds
Open Window Blinds, Go to User Overrides, deselect "Show icon in the system tray" and "Make minimize button minimize to the tray", Hit Apply changes. If you want to see it right away, reboot. That's what I did; I just use the Display Properties-Appearance now whenever I want to change a skin.
If you do this it won't show up in the tray at all.

Hah, I knew someone was going to say that.
Thanks all. Any ideas why my settings didn't work to begin with?
