I apologize in advance if you already know this, but not all items always show up in the system tray or Notification Area because there isn't enough room. When you go to the Notification Area, press space on the notification area button and it will be expanded to include all items. There is a pretty good chance you will see this item then. I've had it happen that the Notification Area goes away as I arrow down through it. If this happens to you before you get all the way through the notification area, use the UP Arrow in stead which will, in effect, start at the bottom and work up. When you have the Notification Area expanded, the last item should be "Customize". I do not know how to get to this from the start menu, and another user said that it was not as accessible there, so try the Notification Area again after expanding it. However, to get there from the Start Menu, try typing "Hybrid" in the start menu search box and see if it is suggested.
