If you right click and select Move window to system tray then that what is does but if you right click it in the system tray no matter which option you try to choose, it will disappear when you mouse over it. ]]> RE: Phantom Explorer button on second task bar https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/phantom-explorer-button-on-second-task-bar/?ID=50702b94-a7e9-4794-847f-c74f6ea5763a#8 Wed, 03 Jun 2015 12:49:31 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/phantom-explorer-button-on-second-task-bar/?ID=50702b94-a7e9-4794-847f-c74f6ea5763a#8 DisplayFusion

I notice that when I use Alan's fix, a phantom "move to other monitor" button appears on my primary monitor. When I hit it, the phantom button then reappears on my secondary monitor.


Just noticed that today as I changed my dark background to a light one. ]]> RE: Phantom Explorer button on second task bar https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/phantom-explorer-button-on-second-task-bar/?ID=50702b94-a7e9-4794-847f-c74f6ea5763a#7 Tue, 02 Jun 2015 12:01:47 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/phantom-explorer-button-on-second-task-bar/?ID=50702b94-a7e9-4794-847f-c74f6ea5763a#7 DisplayFusion I notice that when I use Alan's fix, a phantom "move to other monitor" button appears on my primary monitor.

The next time it shows up here we'll investigate further and hopefully get it all fixed up :) ]]> RE: Phantom Explorer button on second task bar https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/phantom-explorer-button-on-second-task-bar/?ID=50702b94-a7e9-4794-847f-c74f6ea5763a#5 Mon, 01 Jun 2015 15:47:06 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/phantom-explorer-button-on-second-task-bar/?ID=50702b94-a7e9-4794-847f-c74f6ea5763a#5 DisplayFusion

Thanks, that's helpful. I'm a little OCD, and I hate having that extra thing on my taskbar!


Yes, I am like that also. ]]> RE: Phantom Explorer button on second task bar https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/phantom-explorer-button-on-second-task-bar/?ID=50702b94-a7e9-4794-847f-c74f6ea5763a#4 Mon, 01 Jun 2015 11:37:49 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/phantom-explorer-button-on-second-task-bar/?ID=50702b94-a7e9-4794-847f-c74f6ea5763a#4 DisplayFusion Thanks, that's helpful.

It comes back on a reboot but as for now its a work-around. ]]> RE: Phantom Explorer button on second task bar https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/phantom-explorer-button-on-second-task-bar/?ID=50702b94-a7e9-4794-847f-c74f6ea5763a#2 Mon, 01 Jun 2015 06:48:48 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/phantom-explorer-button-on-second-task-bar/?ID=50702b94-a7e9-4794-847f-c74f6ea5763a#2 DisplayFusion I have the same too, had mine since build 10122. ]]> Phantom Explorer button on second task bar https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/phantom-explorer-button-on-second-task-bar/?ID=50702b94-a7e9-4794-847f-c74f6ea5763a Sun, 31 May 2015 22:14:34 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/phantom-explorer-button-on-second-task-bar/?ID=50702b94-a7e9-4794-847f-c74f6ea5763a DisplayFusion Since Windows 10 Build 10130, there is a phantom button on my secondary monitor's taskbar with no text but a File Explorer icon. The preview shows a blank black screen; clicking on it does nothing. It doesn't appear on the primary taskbar, and if I turn on Windows' built-in secondary monitor taskbar, it doesn't show up there; only on the DisplayFusion taskbar. It turns up within a few minutes of booting, and nothing seems to get rid of it.
