"Tracky Mouse Screen Overlay" window visible in taskbar after restarting Windows Explorer
It's meant to be hidden from the taskbar, but it's showing up in Windows 11.
I've had nothing but problems with the Windows 11 taskbar, so I don't know if this is even my fault - icons missing, freezing, taskbar buttons overlapping, windows not minimizing, etc. not to mention that they've removed the ability to choose which side of the screen the taskbar goes on! I would install Linux in a heartbeat, but I can't access my BIOS...
But hopefully it's a simple configuration issue.
This is happening when I restart Windows Explorer from the Task Manager, which I'm having to do multiple times per day. That makes sense why it's happening with Windows 11.
skipTaskbar is already set to true in the BrowserWindow options, but perhaps if I regularly call setSkipTaskbar, or try to detect if Windows Explorer is restarted, and call setSkipTaskbar, I could work around this.
Looks like this is the issue: https://github.com/electron/electron/issues/29526
