How to Minimize ANY Program to Your System Tray – TrayIt

Share 

Freeware

All too often, I find that I have so many windows open at once that it can be hard to sort through the clutter.  TrayIt helps you sort through that same clutter by allowing you to minimize anything on your taskbar onto your system tray – All you need to do is hold down the CTRL key and hit the minimize button, or set it up to always minimize to the system tray.

To ensure that the taskbar experience is carried over to the system tray, it even offers up the the following features:

  • Single click action - only click on icon once in the System Tray to activate an application
  • Group similar tray icons for each application – TrayIt will group similar windows displaying only one icon in the tray to access the group

Completely free, TrayIt is perfect for music players, email clients, and just about anything else you run in the mainly in the background.  Less clutter – more productivity.
