Several Tray Icons Dissapear upon Starting up TaskBarX

Open valsamis-d opened this issue 3 years ago • 7 comments

Describe the bug I have set with configurator TaskBarX to autostart with a 30-second delay. By the time TaskBarX starts several tray icons (programs already loaded) disappear from taskbar. Examples:

  • PowerToys
  • Messenger
  • 3u Tools

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Disable TaskBarX autostart
  2. Reboot
  3. Check tray icons -- all are there
  4. Enable TaskBarX autostart and Show Tray Icon
  5. Reboot
  6. Observe tray icons
  7. Upon TaskBarX start some icons disappear

Expected behavior Other tray icons should not be affected by TaskBarX

Desktop (please complete the following information):

  • OS: Windows 10 Enterprise 64-bit
  • Version 21H2

I experienced that too i was wondering why there is no power toys icon but apparently this is caused by taskbar X

@CrazySaft I think that the issue could be related to the tray icon of TaskBarX. I have noticed that if I disable it and restart TaskBarX, at least the PowerToys tray icon comes back.

I've come to the same conclusion... if you enable the setting to show the TBX tray icon, you lose several other tray icons and sometimes you see "ghost" icons that have a placeholder but no icon or context menu.

@ChrisAnd1998 have you possibly taken a look at this? Thank you!
