Hi:

How to Hide an external running application from the Systray and from Toolbar Windows?

Thank you!

What do you mean by "External running application"?

Are you aware of the options we have in finishing our builds, as in having them to dhow on the Taskbar as normal, in the System Tray or to have them hidden?

Hi Tone:

This is what i done:
I added a folder called "App" on the "CD_Root\AutoPlay" folder!
On the "App" i added a .exe (portable application)!

So, i can run the portable application using:
File.Run(AppFile, "param1", "", SW_HIDE, false);

Even using the Window Mode"SW_HIDE" the application icon appears on the Windows Systray (near the windows clock) and in the Windows Toolbar!

I´de like to hide the icon Portable Aplication from the Systray and from the Windows toolbar!

There´s any code i could use to hide this?

Ty so much!

Oh, i forgot to tell... the Portable Application doesn't have any option to hide the icon on the windows toolbar or even from the systray!

Hi mate, thanks for your reply. It's a very interesting problem.
After you've made your app portable why don't you wrap it up in a AMS exe with the option for the project to be "hidden". i don't knwo if this will work i've never done it.

You're also using the word "Toolbar" for what i presume you mean "Taskbar"

Thanks for posting all these questions you're keeping this forum alive, please continue.

All the best
