Example or info how to run Systray as a service in Windows #21
Comments
hey @niels-s -- in my experience windows services in general are a bit of a nightmare -- super cumbersome and error prone. If you want something to just run at startup, all you need is a registry setting. That's what lantern does. |
@myleshorton thanks for the info found the NSI script for lantern here |
Since i came around the same problem, i just wanted to add, that it is technically impossible to show a system tray for processes running as service in windows. You have to write a second indicator application, that runs with user privileges, and somehow communicates with the service. Mysql for example does this with its Notifier program. |

Thanks!
