Another question concerning WB%
Wednesday, October 12, 2005 by CaptainWin | Discussion: WindowBlinds
I have WB5 successfully installed and running on my computer. One thing that I noticed is that the icon for WB5 is missing from the lower right corner of my screen. Excuse my ignorance, I do not know if this area is called the system tray or task tray, but with all previous versions I had an icon there that I could access the program from. With WB5 I have to right click the screen and select properties and access the program through the appearance tab. Is this a quirk of the beta or is there something I can do to place the icon where I am used to seeing it? I am running Windows XP Home Edition SP2.

wbload.exe is coming back, or the SysTray, err, system notification area icon is coming back?
CaptainWin, for the time being you can put a shortcut to wbconfig.exe in your quicklaunch or wherever you like shortcuts to be. This won't have the right-click options, but will get you to the panel.

Oh, and the system tray is technically called the "system notification area", only nobody actually calls it that.
