Hi Leonard, Below are various steps for customizing the Taskbar so items will show in the System Tray: From: CrisM
To get the icons to show up in the system tray, go to your desktop, tab down three times till you land on Notifications or something, then press the applications key and press enter on the customize notifications icon option. >From there, you'll be able to move and and select which icons you want to appear in the system tray. I had this same issue and someone on here suggested this solution to me and it worked. Cris From: Rick Justice Open the start menu, and type the following in the search box: notification In the results, you should find, notification area icons, make sure that this is selected, and press enter. When the dialogue opens, you will probably hear Jaws say, okay button, so just tab until you get into the list of applications. Each time you tab, you will be on a different application,and using the up and down arrows will select the behavior of that icon. When you have finished making your changes, simply tab to the okay button, and press enter to close the dialogue. HTH, Rick Justice From: Brian Lee You might have figured it out already, but if not, here is what you can do in Windows 7. After setting JAWS to start in the system tray, move to the notification area using Windows key + B. Find the Notification Chevron button and press spacebar on it. Use up arrow key to the Customize choice and press enter key. If focus moves away from the notification area while using up or down arrow key, move back to it using Windows key + B, and if necessary use the chevron button again. After using the Customize button, use tab key several times until you find "Application file for JAWS." As you tab across the window, you will find combo boxes for various programs. Each combo box has three choices. In the combo box for the application file for JAWS, use the up arrow key until the choice for showing JAWS in the notification area is in focus. Tab to the OK button and press spacebar. The JAWS icon should now be in the notification area. Take care. Brian Lee Take care.

However, when I launched it from the system tray to give it a look see once I exited from the program I can no longer locate it in the system tray. I thought using jaws key 11 would solve the problem since sometimes more items show there but no go. Is there something I can configure to fix the issue. I am glad I downloaded the program instead of just running it so if push comes to shove so to speak I'll be able to reinstall it.
