Taskbar icons disappear when elephant runs

📁 Original board: Elephant › Troubleshooting, Tips & Tricks

I'm experiencing a problem with elephant making taskbar icons disappear when it starts up. For example I have the Softube Console 1 application running, but as soon as elephant starts, its taskbar icon is removed from the tray. (I have the settings set to display all icons).

Has anyone else reported this? Anything you can do to resolve?

Thanks,

Stuart

Hello Stuart.
One user report some issues similar to this.
The workaround is start Elephant before the other software. Run elephant at startup.

Thanks for getting back to me. It was running at startup, but it must still be starting after other things. I'll see what I can do.

Really sorry but cant replicate the problem here.
Try make click on desktop and check icons as medium icons, or how your desired, ensure that is checked.
Is your windows up to date?
As a workaround already try open Elephant before any other software?

Hi Thanks for a quick reply, overal solution works great, however im mainly using a scroll emulation feature as i can move my mouse from parameter to parameter i want to control without releasing the control.

As for the Icons disapiring,, try to download voicemeter app for an example as this is one of them

As soon as i start Elephant, voicementer app disapiring from the taskbar, there some other apps which doing the same

Hi Juek
I suggest open Elephant as a first software, you can setup the software for that. I check and see the problem,and there is nothing I can do for improve that.
