Disable the System Tray Application

The System Tray Application is configurable across multiple devices (on all servers and workstations or on servers and workstations at specific clients and sites) or on individual computers.

Once Off is selected, the System Tray Application remains available to the user until they have logged off then back onto the computer.

Multiple Devices

Servers and workstations inherit their configuration from the site, which will in turn inherits from the client, which will in turn inherits the default configuration for all servers and workstations.

  1. Log into the Dashboard
  2. Go to Settings > System Tray Application > Settings
  3. Select the Entity type to apply the configuration to (all servers and workstations or servers and workstations at specific clients and sites)

    4. Feature status indicators (colored dots) in the Settings dialog indicate if the feature is enabled or disabled at the entity level, and whether devices under an entity have the same settings:

    • Green - Feature or functionality enabled for all devices under that entity. This includes device level settings
    • Grey - Feature or functionality disabled on at least one device under that entity. This includes device level settings
    • Orange – One of the child entities has a different configuration to the parent. Where a Client only has one Site, its status indicator reflects that of the Site.

    For more information on these states, see Feature and Functionality Settings Icons.

  4. Choose the Setting: Off or Use Parent where parent is Off (only for Client or Site)
  5. OK to save and apply
