How to delete duplicate System Tray Icon list from Windows 11 Settings?

Question

I just uninstalled Anydesk application from my computer and wonder why this system tray icon is still listed.

I tried removing them from the registry: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Classes\Local Settings\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\TrayNotify. but it is still in the list. How to remove this?

Answer 1

With Windows 11 22H2 Build 22621.1344 and 22621.1413 no more working. The registry keys don't exist.

With the preview updates work without any problem.

But now seemed be frozen in the Taskbar corner overflow (before 22621.1344).

I must manual drop some icons every restart.

and the registry keys

Hello, sorry to Necro this thread, but here's what worked for me. Win 11 22h2

Go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\NotifyIconSettings in registry.

there will be a bunch of directories/Keys below it.

Manually go through each one (you can press the down button on your keyboard) carefully paying attention to the ExecutablePath (will show you where and give you a great idea what it is) and InitialTooltip (another good idea what it is), and if you are certain you know what it is or does then you can do what you wish

If you're unsure of what it is or what it does your choice is at your own risk.
