| See the attachment... When the Taskbar is at the bottom, the touchpad notification moves as the Notification Area becomes populated, however, at no time does the notification obscure the Notification Area. Does that make a difference? ...I think so, but considering how in the dark I am, I think the ... |

| Hahahahahahahahahaha.... The Taskbar is still on the left. ...I can't get it to screw up at all, now. Not much point going on if the symptoms will not harden enough to be repeatable. Nonetheless, I will now move the Taskbar to the bottom and try several boots. |

| I will try the Taskbar horizontal at the bottom -- I don't think the problem will be evident, but I'll try it. In the mean time, I want to show you the full sequence during Windows initialization. Note how the touchpad notification starts above, then jumps down as the Notification Area becomes popul... |

| We're making progress! The attachment is a triptych from the Notification Church. For this test, I turned touchpad notifications back on. See what happens !!! The missing icons on the right (after touchpad notification) are really missing. There are no tooltips on mouseover for the missing icons (so... |

| I'll do your suggested testing in a few minutes. Are the icons missing, but still take a spot in the notification area? It was not clear from your screenshot. Since the icons were sporadically disappearing from the static Notification Area, in order to make them usable at all, I had to force them in... |

| Howdy, Test results: De-installed Classic Shell. Booted 10 times. Notification Area fidelity: 100%. Installed Classic Shell. Immediately, 2 of 4 Notification icons disappeared, but all 4 tooltips work (i.e., clicking a location where a missing icon should be causes a click event on that Notification... |

| Hey, May I make a suggestion? I run Win7, and I don't have those damned Libraries, but I have a hierarchical Start Menu (so no scrolling). You have switched to a Start Menu that's as capable as the XP Start Menu, so why don't you put application launchers into categories and implement the start menu... |

| Have the notification area problem been fixed after you uninstalled Classic Shell? A restart may be required. Hahahahahahaha.... I reinstalled Classic Shell already -- I don't want to live a moment without it. 8^) I'll pull it out and see if I can get the Notification Area working right again witho... |

In the last few versions I added some changes in the hopes that they improve things, but I don't know if they improve anything. I think this may... |

| Thank you for your note. Of course I've been using this application for many, many years (...at least 2 of those years running Win7) and you'd think I would have run into this long before now. Is there a chance that Classic Start Menu could have exacerbated it? Do you have any idea what's happening ... |

| UPDATE. Microsoft Photo Editor seems to be the only application affected by this. I tried compatibility settings for XP-SP2 & XP-SP3 to no effect. I did not expect compatibility settings to make a difference. This of course does not explain why icons in the Notification Area disappear (presumabl... |

| I de-installed Classic Start Menu. The problem did not go away. Something has damaged my Win7 system. Each time the Microsoft Photo Edit application is closed and it's position is saved in the registry, it moves left by the width of the Taskbar. [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Photo Editor\3.0... |

| Classic Shell has no effect on the window positions. That's entirely up to the individual application. I have seen other reports about disappearing icons caused by Classic Shell. I have not seen the problem first-hand and I don't know what is causing it. In the last few versions I added some change... |
