How can I remove the Opera icon from the system tray (Windows XP SP2,
Opera 9.5). I can't find the setting to change among the preferences.
Opera shows the icon there if you have a mail, newsgroups or chat account
set up.
I don't seem to have any mail, newsgroup or a chat accounts.
Selecting Tools->Mail and Chat accounts...
Give a pop-up which says
"You need to create an account before proceeding.
Would you like to create one now?"
As I recall, Opera's newsgroup reader is part of it's mail reader, so this
seems to confirm I have none of the accounts you mention.
So, why do I have an Opera icon in my notification area?
Windows XP can hide such icons, right-click an empty part of the system
tray to start managing it.
You can also use a commandline option in the shortcut you use to start
Opera, to make sure Opera doesn't create a system tray icon:
"C:\Program Files\Opera\opera.exe" /notrayicon
This doesn't help when Opera is started from another program because it's
the default browser.
I'm afraid there is no simpler way to get rid of it.
Unfortunate.
But, in my case, according to your comment above, I shouldn't have it
showing anyway.
What's up?
