If you're a multi-tasker, you probably
hate taskbar clutter. The Windows 7 redesign of the taskbar is an
improvement, but not a perfect solution (and if you're using an earlier
OS, it's no help to you at all). RBTray
offers a nifty remedy for almost all Windows users, giving you the
option to minimize programs to the system tray instead of the taskbar
(where minimized programs usually go), simply by right-clicking the
minimize button. It's great for programs like e-mail clients and media
players which you always want running, but don't want in your way.
RBTray is a nice little utility
that enables you to minimize any window or program to the system tray
(instead of the task bar) by simply right-clicking on the standard
Windows minimize button. It is a Standalone software, no installation
required. This is a good option in case you do not want a window or
running program to take up your taskbar space, but still keep running in
the background.
To use RBTray, just double click
it, and it will keep running in the background. After that, if you
right click on Minimize icon of any open window, that window will be
minimized to system tray in form of a small icon. In order to minimize a
window in system tray, first make sure that the program is running and
showing up in system tray, then right click the minimize button of any
window which you want to move to system tray. Just when you right click
the minimize button the program window will show up with the application
icon in system tray. In order to maximize the window again, just double
click the application icon shown up in system tray.
RBTray itself is quite small in
size. Download size is less than 1 MB, and it does not installs
anything. It is completely free, and open source.
