TrayIt
Rating: 5
Version tested: 4.4.2
Description: TrayIt is a utility that enables you to minimize any program into the system tray instead of the taskbar.
Have you ever used a program that you needed to keep always running, but for some reason it would only minimize to the taskbar rather than the system tray? This was always the case when I was using MS Outlook many moons ago (thankfully those days are long gone). I never could quite figure out why it doesn’t just minimize to the to the system tray like an email client should. I am also surprised to find that some media players and instant messaging clients do this as well (you’d think surely the makers of instant messaging software would be sensitive to this little detail).
TrayIt is a small program that can create a small icon in the system tray and remove the program from the taskbar when minimized (see screenshot above). You can tell TrayIt to do this for any program that you want, either by minimizing that program while pressing CTRL, or by adding it within the TrayIt application interface.
All in all a nice little program that does the job well.

At last! I used to have an app that did this but it stopped working with XP_SP2.

I use an app much like this called 4t-min. The biggest thing I like about it is being able to simply right-click the minimize button of a window, and it will minimize to tray. It doesn’t show you a number for stacked windows, however. There is a Pro version, but the Free version does everything I want it to do.
