W11ASI

Overview

Provides the ability in Windows 11 to help force the promotion of all system icons in the system tray.

This application was created with the goal of supporting the removed functionality of Window's "Always show all icons in the notification area". When this utility is run, it will first ensure all known system icon entries are visible. Afterwards, it will monitor for changes to the system tray (such as new/updated applications) and ensure they remain visible.

Install

1. Extract the w11asi-portable.zip package and place the contents in any desired directory (e.g. C:\w11asi).
2. (optional) Run the install.bat script to have the program start after logging in.
3. Run w11asi.exe, which will run in the background.

Users can also use shutdown.bat to terminate the program (or use the task manager, if preferred). Also, an uninstall.bat script is provided to unregister the application from starting when the user logs in.
