Feature #9 - Eliminate the Notification Area

Eliminate the Notification Area
This choice is located in Control Panel under Notification Area Icons, or type Notification in the search line. What, I can even get rid of the clock and volume icons? Yes. Click the arrow that gives access to the overflow icons in the notification area and click customize. Select each icon and click hide icon and notifications to remove it. Clean up notifications by turning them all to off. With Windows 7, we finally see system tray icons behave in a
similar way to everything else on the taskbar. So if you want to rearrange them, just drag and drop them into
the order you like. You can decide to show icons of Running Programs and or which Notifications are displayed.
The following is the view of which System icons to turn on or off.
