Hi all,
I see that I can hide the "host" tray icon menu.
But, is there a way to remove that icon (not only the menu) from the system tray, without affecting the functionalities?
thanks

Hello Marco,

Thank you for your message.

We've discontinued the feature to hide the Host icon starting version 6.3.0.4 for security reasons - the Host icon is persistent in the system tray, so the user at the remote machine can always easily identify if Host is running or if there's a tech currently connected to their Host. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Please let us know if you have other questions.
