Tray icon does not disappear upon scheduled EMBY server restart

[Crestj 67]

Running Emby Server 3.1.10.

 

I have the Emby Server application restart scheduled at 10am and 5pm each day.

 

After a few days I notice that the tray icon on Windows Server 2012 R2 Essentials (where Emby runs) is duplicated and seems like a new one is created upon each restart.

 

The server is always logged on with an admin account.

 

Hovering the mouse over them makes them disappear as you would expect but this only started happening about a month ago.

 

It's obviously not a big deal as the server is physically rebooted each month anyway for patching but wondered if this was just me or anyone else.

It happens to a lot of different services that have a tray icon.

 

I, and many others, get it as well, so it's nothing to be alarmed about.

 

As you say, mouse over them and they disappear.

Fair enough, just wanted to check as this "shouldn't" happen at all.

 

Issue ignored

As I said, I get it for other non-emby services that have a tray icon.

 

Not sure if there is a fix for it, but if you find something, let us all know please

They have actually gone, it's just that your screen hasn't re-drawn that part of the display, mousing over the area forces Windows to re-draw and lo and behold it disappears.

Have this same issue. It's rather annoying, but tolerable. As mentioned, you can mouse over the icon and it disappears. Still though, if you have scheduled or automatic Emby restarts, you may come back to the PC and see multiple iterations of the Emby icon in the taskbar. Just a visual annoyance.

Run it as a service, hey presto, no icon in the task bar at all
