Brian, thanks. I'm using TightVNC 1.2.6, and have the registry path & key value set correctly.
Do I need a more up-to-date version? Given that I was told this information when I downloaded TightVNC back in September last year, I would have thought it accurate & that it should still work now. Someone please help me before I tear all my hair out in frustration! Su Warren -----Original Message----- From: W. Brian Blevins [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 06 February 2003 15:11 To: VNC List Subject: RE: FW: Registry key for DisableTrayIcon Su Warren, "DisableTrayIcon" works with TridiaVNC, TridiaVNC Pro and TightVNC. If I recall correctly, it is not supported by RealVNC. You will need to get the registry branch (path) right as well. HKLM\Software\Tridia\TridiaVNC\WinVNC3 DisableTrayIcon (DWORD) http://www.tridiavncpro.com/ HKLM\Software\ORL\WinVNC3 DisableTrayIcon (DWORD) http://www.tightvnc.com/ "1" *is* the correct value to prevent the appearance of the tray icon, however, you have to have a build/distribution that supports that option.
