    The option "Other system tray icons" in the Settings app always displays the wrong icons


    I recently updated my laptop to Windows 11 22H2 and is working quite well. However, I noticed a very odd bug. By accident, I reached out to this option in "Other system tray icons" in the Systems app, and oddly, most icons are wrong: It's mixing Ferdi with Bluetooth Devices, there are non-existing apps being shown, etc. Is anyone else facing the same issue? Or am I the only one? I created this bug in the Feedback Hub, but it has been ignored for now:https://aka.ms/AAia10q

  2. Tray icon disappears

    I've been experiencing since the installation of Windows XP SP2 on multiple machines with the ATITool Tray Icon disappearing upon load at system startup. Sometimes it's there, sometimes it's not. Enabling or Disabling the "Hide Inactive (tray) Icons" WinXP menu option doesn't have any effect. The only way to open ATITool after it has loaded is to go through the start menu to open it again. I have "minimize on close" selected in ATITool. When closing ATITool, you see it make the motions of minimizing to the tray area but no icon is displayed. Any ideas?

  4. The option "Other system tray icons" in the Settings app always displays the wrong icons

    System Tray Icon Will Not Display.

    Win 10 x64

    On my system tray I have several icons for running programs. I know to to set them up to display.

    One of the programs is running, as confirmed by various methods but refuses to display on the system tray.


    The option "Other system tray icons" in the Settings app always displays the wrong icons 6851c488-eeed-4842-a0a0-a87fc0f42f6b?upload=true.jpg


    The icon is activated but it just does not show. As all the other icons can be made to display or hide as expected there doesn't appear to be a fundamental problem with Windows functionality.

    The program starts from the 'Start-Up' folder.

    I have also tried starting it using different methods such as registry, task scheduler, startup delay, preventing the other system tray items from starting, reinstalling etc. but all result in the icon being active but not displaying.

    SFC, DISM, Reset Icons, Restart Explorer, have all been tried, but the icon remains unseen on the system tray.

    Does anyone know how I can get just this one faulty icon working?

    Regards
