Anyone know why I would have 2 instances of ewftray.exe running in my image
when after i boot? It's only specified once in the registry's Run key.
 
Tim,

I wouldn't know why you see two icons.
Keep in mind that the application does not prevent itself from being launched twice or more (there is just no need to set the limit
for this type of app).

At run time please check:
- whether there is definitely two instances of the app running (use Task Manager or ptask Process Explorer or etc.)
- Start the app with start up items, not Run key
- Launch the app only manually

Let me know if with two last methods you still see two instances of the application running. Then there is a bug in the application
and I will fix it through the code.
 
KM,

It creates 2 separate instances of ewftray.exe in the task manager only on
startup. if i end the processes and startup manually, only one instance is
executed.

do you think you are going to make a change to the tray?
 
Tim,

No, there is no reason to change the app as the problem is in likely in your image setup.
You basically start the application twice. The EwfTray component itself has a RunOnce (Run) resource so you don't really need to add
another Run/RunOnce key to launch the application one more time.
 
Thanks KM.
