Hey all,

Was wondering if their is a way to possibly minimize GW to your system tray somehow.

Thanks ahead!

I've used this program called Tray It and it works really well, can't be 100% sure that it's virus free as I didn't download it from this link so you might want to do a scan to make sure it's safe

Question: Are you talking about the NOTIFICATION Area (the area on the right of the actual Taskbar, left of the clock)? If so, why would you want Guild Wars minimized to the Notification Area?

That's the system tray, and I'd assume he would want it there for AFK purposes. I know I used TrayIt before (And still have it installed) for games that I didn't want to close, but didn't want to be bothered with, either. As well as for stuff like my media player, etc.

Uh, no. It's actually called the Notification Area. People just call it the System Tray for some reason. In my thinking, the System Tray is the Taskbar on the bottom of the screen, which in itself is in error.

That's because in WinXP it's actually called the System Tray - Or, at least, the executable is (Systray.exe) (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/310578)

Meh, microsoft trying to stem commonly used names and replace them with their own (albeit arguably more sensible) ones.

"Notification Area" is a lame name ^_^
