The only 2 ways that I have found to solve this problem is to either logoff/logon the user account AFTER a full reboot when you have missing icons (a big waste of time) or run a startup delayer to ensure that everything starts sequentially. So there is no way to access or control the related application. The application tied to the icon IS running in the system but the tray icon does not display in the tray. XP (at least unsure of Vista since I don’t run it) has a long standing bug where icons in the tray don’t always show up after a reboot. I am running WinXP SP3 and have 32 processes showing in the tray area right now. I have discovered one value for this type of application that is not mentioned (and is the reason I use Startup Delayer). It may still make sense to run Startup Delayer to speed up the system start of the operating system by delaying select applications from running directly on system start. While that does not include programs, it may be good to know that this is possible.
Windows Vista and newer users can configure services to start delayed in the operating system. The premium version on top of the features that the free standard version provides offers backup and restoration options, startup profiles, an ad free interface and the conversion of tasks to startup applications. Update 2: Startup Delayer is now available as a free standard edition and a premium version that needs to be purchased. We have removed the link from the article and suggest you use Startup Delayer now. Update: Delayed Exec is no longer available.
An alternative to Delayed Exec is Startup Delayer which does not require the Microsoft. The startup software is compatible with Windows XP and Windows Vista.
