Traymond

A very simple app for minimizing any window to tray as an icon. Runs in the background.

In case it terminates unexpectedly, restart the app and all the icons for minimized windows will come back.

Windows 7 or later required.

NB: Does NOT work with apps from the Microsoft Store (see #3).

A binary is available here.

Installing

No installation required, just run Traymond.exe.

Controls

• Win key + Shift + Z: Minimize the currently focused window to tray.

• Double click on an icon: Bring back the corresponding hidden window.

• Tray icon menu accessible by right-clicking the Traymond tray icon:

  • Restore all windows: Restore all previously hidden windows.

  • Exit: Exit Traymond and restore all previously hidden windows.
