I have windows 7 sp1 64bit OEM. I found the two registry entries at: Computer\HKEY_Classes_Root\Local Settings\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVirsion\TrayNotify.

“Now hit Ctrl +Alt + Tab to open Task Manager”

Do you not mean “Now hit Ctrl +Alt + Del and open Task Manager”?

I found the TrayNotify and did the instructions step by step. When I type explorer on Run the notification list box doesn’t show up. Libraries box shows up instead.

TrayNotify is not listed on my registry.

after killing explorer.exe process (windows7 x64)
the start menu disappeared…so i couldnt use the run–explorer.exe

workaround:- using windows task manager — application tab — click new task and type explorer.exe and click OK…

It does the job.

Unfortunately it deletes all icons, so we must have to customize their behaviors again.

It solved my problem, so, thank you so much!

I did it, it works great. But now I can not turn on the Action Center notifications. It just remains off, grayed out. Did I end up deleting it or something?

Just ran the steps on Win 7 Professional 64-bit to remove an icon that remained after the program was uninstalled. Worked perfectly….thanks!!!
