Systray.exe is a tool for system taskbar notifications. The taskbar provides a location for programs and hardware devices to display icons. For example, if your computer supports advanced power management (APM), a Battery Meter icon may be displayed on the taskbar.

The following icons provided by Systray.exe may be displayed on the taskbar:

•	Battery Meter
•	PC Card Status
•	Volume Control
•	Quickres
•	Task Scheduler

Other parts of the system may provide additional taskbar icons, for example:

•	Windows Explorer provides the printer status icon
•	Microsoft Exchange or Microsoft Outlook provides the mail status icon
•	The Accessibility status indicator program (Accstat.exe) displays keyboard accessibility icons
•	Microsoft Fax adds the Fax Rendering and Fax Status icons
