Hide System Tray Icon?
Sunday, April 17, 2005 by tempques | Discussion: ObjectDock
Hello,
After buying ObjectDockPlus I found out that there was an icon that appeared in the system tray of my normal Windows Taskbar. I was wondering how to disable that icon from appearing when running ObjectDock? Thanks for any advice given.

I'd like to ask that a future release of object dock + include an option to disable the systray icon from the main Windows taskbar.
Thanks.
Thanks.

I would also like to see something to remove the icon in the Windows System Tray. I try to keep mine as tidy as possible. I am enjoying ObjectDock so it probably won't make or break it, but this is a feature most/all apps that put something in the system tray offer and I would appreciate it if StarDock did the same.

I am not sure if this will fix it for you, but I managed to get rid of the ObjectDock icon from the system tray and I own the full version. Actually it kind of pissed me off. Unless the program is anti-virus or process-guard related a user should ALWAYS be given the option of turning off the system tray icon.
1. Start->run->services.msc
2. Machine Debug Manager->Properties
3. Set startup to disable
You don't need this service run ObjectDock and it can be considered a security flaw. The service manages local and remote debugging for Visual Studio debuggers
*EDIT* The icon came back. I've checked the registry too.

Just curious, if you right click the tray, properties and under hide inactive, customize: if the icon is listed (doesn't show for the free version) and you choose always hide - does it still show?
