nope, they are not hidden. If explorer crashes, many of my systray icons just disapear.
as for the administrative tools, all it says is that the shell stopped unexpectedly
and explorer.exe was restarted.
Ona side note, thi appears to be a general bug in windows, from whiat i found out.
It seems that when explorer crashes, windows requests the applicatios running to
redraw the systray icons (that is if windows requests, maybe the application has
to check). However, many apps fail to do so, like windvd and so many others that
all i can say is barely any support it. This is highly annoying, some processes may
be minimised but it may be critical to gauge their progress, but there is no possible
way to do so unless u restart it.
If anybody could tell an alternative method toredraw the icons, please let me know.
I am not interested in traysavers and such, any other ay?
