Duplicate Icons In System Tray

[Deleted member 244471]

Since upgrading to Windows 10 from 7, I have noticed icons duplicating in the system tray. I haven't been able to find a solution online, as everyone else is complaining about icons in the taskbar. The most commonly duplicated icons have been Vuze, Samsung Link, and Norton Antivirus.

Does anyone know a solution or reason for these multiples of icons?

Hi there,

There is a simple fix for this as I have had the same sort of problem in Windows 7.

Download this program here.

It's relatively easy to use, you should be able to figure it out, the program basically resets the icon cache on the system tray, it should fix your issue. Be sure to restart your PC after using the program to make sure it has worked properly!

Post back results here!

Hope I helepd! :d
