IDEA: "Windows Task Manager" System Tray Fixer.
« on: October 31, 2005, 01:51 PM »
Sometimes when you minimize "Windows Task Manager", even though all the settings are correct, it will not go into the system tray.  The only way to resolve this is to reboot.

I think that it would be nice to have a utility that, when this problem occurs, causes it to appear in the system tray again.

Thanks!

To solve it, bring up the task manager, *exit* it instead of minimizing, and re-start... at least that works for me. I almost only use Process Explorer now, though. Which sometimes has the bug of the icon missing (or rather, just turning grey).
