Systray icons disapearing

[Petr]

Hi all,

this problem is intermittent and very annoying. Usually a
right click on a folder in Widows Explorer will start the
problem. The whole desktop disapears and comes back after
several seconds but some icons in the systray will
disapear and you have to reboot in order to get them back.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance.

Unfortunately, this is a known issue - when Explorer crashes, some system
tray icons will not return.

To fix this, we should figure out why Explorer is crashing in the first
place - did you recently install a program with a shell extension?
