OK, let's find another way to get to the Customize Notification Icons dialog, so you can reset their behavior as previously stated. Yet another shortcut to the dialog previously discussed is to hit the Windows key to bring up the Start Menu, then the Escape key to land you on the Start button. Now press Alt + Enter to bring up it's Properties dialog. If not already on the Taskbar tab, press Control + Tab until you are. Now Tab several times to get to the Customize... button.
If this fails you, it is a Control Panel and can be found by hitting the Windows key and start typing "customize icons", without the quotes. I get as far as "customize i" . before "Customize icons on the Taskbar" appears. There is one state in which the "Customize..." button is not available in this dialog. I think to make it available again, check a checkbox that says something like "Always show all notification icons in the Taskbar". *Don Marang* Vinux Package Development Coordinator - vinuxproject.org <http://www.vinuxproject.org/> On 9/30/2012 5:26 AM, Liuda Balcius wrote: > Hello, > No, when I press the Windows plus b, it sends me to System Tray safely > remove hardware and then after pressing the applications key, there is no > properties nor Customize icons option, but instead printer options, etc. I > never get to Properties nor Notification Chevron because it no longer exists > on the tab or arrows even.
