Multiple icons in icon tray #2181

I was wondering why I get multiple icons appearing in the icon tray? I tried to uninstall the programme and reinstall but found no way to uninstall?

I see you've removed the issue template. Can you fill out the issue template, and maybe attached a screenshot of the problem?

Sorry about not setting this, I quickly rushed out a thread as I was busy at the time. I greatly apologize as I know how little use it was to you having no information.

Again, I am more curious how to uninstall the programme properly so I can reinstall. The programme doesn't appear in my add or remove programme list. I imagine this could solve the rogue sprites icons. See attached untitled

Fixed it by getting rid of old tray icons and restarting explorer.exe. Then reinstalled.

Weird, maybe it was Windows doing something strange.

To "uninstall" you just delete the exe, there is no installer.

Yea, I basically just went into regedit and located the tray and just deleted the two old tray files. Then just closed explorer.exe and restarted. See I deleted the exe but when I did a system search there were several rogue files remaining for audio switcher. Text files etc. I deleted those, I imagine they were just leftover files. Reinstalled it not and its fine apart from sometimes it just doesn't start on windows startup despite settings being set. Idk.
