achievement watcher leaves icons lingering after game's turned off

Open yarrmateys opened this issue 3 years ago • 2 comments

Describe the bug when starting a game (in this test case fallout 4) the icon will pop up for a second saying "now playing fallout 4" and after closing the game another appears with "you played for x minutes". this will leave two phantom icons in the hidden icons part. if you open and close the game often, for example when modding or testing something (or crashing, bethesda games are famous for that), this will very quickly build up to dozens, even hundreds of these phantom icons. this is on windows 7 in case this matters.

Expected behavior expected these icons to be cleared out when the program shuts down.

You mean the systray ? I honestly don't know if there is anything I can do about it.

Feels like the old Windows bug where the systray doesn't refresh on its own. I have this sometimes on Win10 with some programs where I need to hover the mouse on the icon(s) to make it/them refresh and disappear.

FYI You can disable the time tracking notification in Settings > notification so when you r doing modding or testing it won't bother you
