Outlook Disappears in System Tray

[Andrew Morkunas]

I have Outlook 2007 configured to minimize to the system tray. After the
last reboot of my computer I noticed that Outlook was nowhere in the system
tray. In the system tray it is configured to Always Show. It is not hidden
in the collapsed system tray. It is not there, even though Outlook is
running. I have modified the registry entry at:

\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\12.0\Outlook\Preferences\MinToTray.
Resetting the value to 0, Outlook appears in the Task Bar. Setting to 1,
which is minimize to System Tray, the icon does not appear.



My operating system is XP with SP3.



Thanks,



Andrew

Did you try logging out and back in or rebooting the PC?
