EarTrumpet Tray Icon disappears / NIM_MODIFY Failed

Good afternoon

Thanks a lot for this great Tool!, it enhances the usability very much and I hope to sometimes get an Non-M$-Store setup (e.g. to add it to Chocolatey 😃 )

Note:

It’s possible that this issue relates to another Issue: #314

The Issue:

After about 1 Day, the EarTrumpet Tray Icon often disappears while EarTrumper.exe is still running. Here, I have a Screenshot to show the situation: EarTrumpet: Tray Icon disapeared

The Logfile:

I have added the Logfile: https://justpaste.it/TomsEarTrumpetLog1

The most important lines probably are:

14:44:47.586 UI TaskbarIconSource Changed: C:\Windows\System32\SndVolSSO.dll,120:hc=False dpi=115 theme=False legacy=True
14:44:49.536 UI TaskbarIconSource Changed: C:\Windows\System32\SndVolSSO.dll,123:hc=False dpi=115 theme=False legacy=True
14:46:47.059 UI ShellNotifyIcon Update NIM_MODIFY Failed: 2147500037

I hope that the NIM_MODIFY Failed error helps a lot…

Thanks a lot!, kind regards, Thomas

I was not sure how to find the Logfile when the icon is missing, and therefore I can't open EarTrumpet settings

Yes, this was tricky: I kept the EarTrumpet Settings » About Dialog open and waited until the Tray Icon disapeared 😃
