System Tray icons on Multi-Monitor doesn't work on my other monitors. I right clicked the task bar on the secondary monitors by going to Multi-Monitor Taskbar -> System Tray Icons -> Right/Left/Automatic (all doesn't work). I re-installed version 9.9 and still doesn't work. Was there an update that removed Show/Hide??

The 3rd monitor does not show the system icons, the number 1 and 2 does.

No changes. Still no system icons. The only work around is dragging primary bar over to the third monitor. However, primary ends up with no system icons.

I'm having the same problem here with Windows 11 Insider builds after 25267. Don't know if it's related to that or not, but up until 25267 the systray icons showed up in the secondary display taskbar and now they don't.

Changing the position of the taskbar, autohide or the "System tray icons" setting to Left, Right or Automatic doesn't fix it.

Tried fully uninstalling and reinstalling DisplayFusion but still same problem.

I did a windows update today to build 22621.1344 and my system tray icons are missing on the displayfusion taskbars.
Microsoft must have changed something.
DF version is beta 19.

Thanks, same as others, this just occurred after the latest Win 11 update. Would reverting to latest stable build fix it in the interim?

I went back to build 25267 and they are showing up again.

Same issue here. After installing the Moment 2 update for Windows 11, my DF Multi-Monitor taskbars no longer show the up arrow to expand the tray icons. The only tray icons showing are network, volume and battery. No up arrow to see all the other tray icons.

Sorry this is a kind of a dealbreaker for me. I'm not planning to stop using this software obviously, but my 2nd screen system tray is useless now. I never knew how much I used it until it was rendered useless.

Has this been fixed in the new Insider build 25314 or is it still happening?

I'm also running into this issue (latest Windows 11 and Display Fusion Pro)

How do I find build 25267 to download? Thanks!

I think he meant he reverted to a previous Windows build.

Windows 11 and no System Tray Icons. Tried both DisplayFusion 9.9 and 10.0-Beta22.

troubleshooting info attached

Working for me again, thank you.

Not working for me:



Build 25314

I may have spoke too soon. While the system tray icons are working they are entirely the wrong ones and do not mirror the actual system tray icons on my main monitor (see attached images)

Attached the file as requested.

Nope. I just installed this version 2 days ago. Attached my debug info file.

Build 25324 was just released. Gonna check that one out and will report if it works or not.

Even more strange: on a different machine where I have Build 25247 installed, Beta 23 *removed* all tray icons except two (SmoothScroll and 'Safely Remove Media'):

But beta 22 and previous work ok:

And same for Build 25324. Does not work.

All my icons on the second monitor disappeared with the last Beta23 update. Can you please do a fix? I've tried everything, restoring old backup settings (where everything was fine) did not work either.

No change. Troubleshooting info attached for 10.0-Beta23.

That was quick, however, not successful

Ok so I finally got the little "up arrow" back so I could see the rest of my tray icons... until I rebooted. After reboot the up arrow is gone again.
DF 10 beta 24
Windows 11 22H2 - Build 22621.1413
When I click on the taskbar it will randomly flash, show the arrow, flash again and arrow again is gone. It looks as if the DF bar is crashing and re-loading continuously.

Still the same. Nothing showing up in Build 25324.1000.

After the latest beta (25) it seems to be working for me now.

I went back to "DisplayFusionSetup-10.0-Beta21c.exe" and it works now. All icons on second montor are back...

Tray icons are working again for me.

I'm running:
-DisplayFusion 10.0 Beta24
-Windows 11 build 22621.1413

This is my troubleshooting info from Beta 24 (systray icons not showing up on secondary display's taskbar) and Beta 22 (all systray icons ok) on my Build 25247 installation.

How can I send you the clip privately?

Ah ok. I've attached the clip here.

DF Pro 10.0 Windows 11 22H2 2261.1413 Just installed Beta 25. Again, taskbar system tray not mirrored on monitor #2. What next?

Installed beta 25 and the up arrow returned upon first launch after install of beta 25. After a reboot, the up arrow is gone again... Until I open the Start Menu then it magically appears again.

I forgot to mention when I uploaded my clip; I don't turn on auto-hide on my taskbars.

Installed Beta 25... all systray icons disappeared. Forced explorer.exe restart... only SmoothScroll and 'Safely Remove Hardware' icons show up in the secondary taskbar...



Here is the Debug file. I'm going back to Beta 22.

Beta 25 still regresion compared to b23, trayicon still miss on df taskbar on 2nd screen

Arrow up is missing only network and volume next to clock and date are visible on B24 and b25

Here are both Taskbars Primary monitor and DF taskbar on monitor 2. Items in overflow are duplicated.

I haven't tried that because I use NIRCMD to hide the Windows Taskbar at login. I have DF taskbar replace the Windows Taskbars.

Had to disable StartAllBack and then clicking the arrow and dropping and ordering the systray icons again on the Windows taskbar made them appear on the DisplayFusion Taskbar BUT... the order is all wrong. This is the main windows taskbar systray:

and this what DisplayFusion shows on the secondary taskbar:

It even shows the HWinfo main icon, which is hidden in the Windows taskbar, and doesn't show the FxSound icon at all:

Tried reordering and taking them in and out of the 'hidden' zone but didn't work: the FxSound (www.fxsound.com) icon never shows up and the HWinfo64 (www.hwinfo.com) icons are all wrong.

So, back to Beta 22 for now for me.

Beta 26 solved all the problems. Great job guys! 👍

Only things is:

1. Icons have a lot more empty space between them than the original taskbar:


2. Doesn't work with StartAllBack. Have to disable StartAllBack every time you want a new icon to show in the DisplayFusion secondary taskbar.

New beta looks good, the bulk of the sys tray icons are present.
The only one missing for me is the Bluetooth Devices and WireGuard icons.

I've got a similar problem...not sure how to take pictures to show whats happening.

On monitor 2, the tray icons will show up when displayfusion loads, then after a little bit (30s-2min), all but 3 of them will disappear. I've tried messing with the settings in the multi-monitor taskbar menus, but nothing seem to bring them back. What's weird is that the icons that are showing aren't even all the icons showing on my main display. Main display has 4 icons showing plus the overflow, the secondary shows only 3.

So I've been using a little addon to Windows 11 called ExplorerPatcher. It brings back the windows 10 ability to show all the windows on the taskbar. It ran an update and that seems to be what caused my issue. I uninstalled it and everytrhing seems to be working properly now.

I meant the StartAllBack taskbar. DisplayFusion taskbar's systray icons do not synchronize at all with the systray icons (and their positions) from the StartAllBack's main taskbar.

Cool thanks. I've rejigged my workflow a little to accomodate the change, but it would be nice to be back to normal.

Beta 26 fixed my issues, and someone mentioned Wireguard missing from tray icons, mine is pressent on DF taskbar

b26 is working fine for me now.

Alas, beta 27 has no joy for me.No improvement.

Same here with Beta 27, FXSound (https://www.fxsound.com/) doesn't show at all, neither in the icon tray nor in DisplayFusion's taskbar.

Beat 27 seems to be working for me. I've had it on all morning and no issues so far.

Ok, so this is an interesting one...maybe this needs to be a new discussion, I don't know.

Since installing the new beta, my icons of running apps (not in the system tray) on my vertical monitor are organising horizontally instead of vertically.

Popup showed for update avalable, installed 10.0 No improvement, still missing items, overflow shows on both monitors.

10.0.1 Beta 1 no improvement. Still missing items on second monitor.

Have the same problem on Ver 10.0.1 B1 running Windows V22H2 build 22621.1105.

The FXsound icon not appearing is now fixed. It shows up now. But the network and sound icons appear duplicated again... this was working ok in Beta 26. They weren't duplicated anymore in Beta 26.

And even in 10.1 Beta 2 the system tray icons still appear heavily spaced compared to the main taskbar:

Which version ate you using? I still can't see tray icons.

10.1 Beta 2 now.

Update: Windows 11 22H2 22621.1555 DF Pro 10.1 (Beta2) Some but not all on monitor 2

Update to people that still have trouble with thi:
Even with the last DisplayF beta 3 update i still had the problem,so it's definetly fixed from their side.
Updating to the last available windows version fixed it for me.
Current Win Ver: https://imgur.com/a/s1RmG7L

FxSound taskbar button still only appears on the main Windows taskbar.

When the app window is moved to other display the taskbar button doesn't move to the DisplayFusion taskbar. It remains in the main taskbar...

They are all gone again in newest Build 25921

Sure. There you go.

Both the tray icons and the overflow button. But yes, disabling StartAllBack fixes it.

StartAllBack doesn't work ok for me in this build. The taskbar in the primary display was the Windows one when I reported the DisplayFusion taskbar not displaying tray icons.
Then I checked the "disable for this user" option in StartAllBack anyway and the tray icons started appearing in the DisplayFusion taskbar.
Now I can enable StartAllBack again but it doesn't change anything when I activate it: the main taskbar is still the Windows one and the secondary taskbar from DisplayFusion displays the tray icons correctly.

Anyway... I don't need StartAllBack anymore, as now the Windows taskbar buttons displays text labels again, which was the main reason I started using StartAllBack.

And again back to the same problem: *all* tray icons gone in latest 10.1.1 in Win 11 25941... but was working ok in the previous DF beta, that is not available to download anymore for downgrading. 🤦

Why?

It's pretty weird, I have the same build ( 25947 ) in 2 different machines now, but it happens in one machine only.

Also, the FxSound tray icon doesn't show up in neither.

Yes, I have the same StartAllBack installed on both machines, BUT it is disabled in both.

Yes, FxSound shows up now in the taskbar at least, but not in the tray area.

Yes, no problem at all in the Windows taskbar's tray area.

I cannot "reproduce the issue". It doesn't happen at a certain point or step. Happens all the time, even with your recent 10.1.2 beta 1.
Tray icons in DF taskbars doesn't show up at all, only the perpetual Network and Audio combo, but none of the rest.

On the right is the Windows taskbar and tray area and on the left is the DF taskbar..



Here's the log.
