Can these be duplicated to the other taskbars or is this difficult to code in?

1. Right click on the taskbar you wish to show the tray icons on.

2. Select Multi-Monitor taskbar, then System Tray (Clock and Icons)

3. Select Show/Hide Icons (Clock too, if you want it) and other options.

That will do it.

It works as long as you are using DisplayFusion's taskbars on the other monitors.

Was there a conclusion reached on this question?

I would be so happy to hear that I simply missed a setting.

I own DisplayFusion and would love to reinstall it and utilize its many features, but I have StartAllBack (a relatively limited-scope app) installed instead because it seems to be the ONLY piece of software capable of carbon copy duplicating my taskbar.

I'm on Windows 11 24H2.

The tray icons will appear on every DisplayFusion taskbar by default. StartAllBack might be interfering though, if you remove that and turn on DisplayFusion taskbars, do they appear?

Sorry, should have clarified. I anticipated this, and had StartAllBack uninstalled.

I tried this a while back with DisplayFusion 10.x, and just recently had the same results with 11.x (tried again thinking maybe the version change would make a difference.)

If the tray icons are supposed to mirror across the DisplayFusion taskbars by defaulf, I must be missing something, or something else must be interfering.

I can provide some additional diagnostic info when I get home if you tell me what you need.

Thank you.

Hello Owen - thanks for your response. I suppose I was being a bit lazy (and giving the StartAllBack developers more credit than they deserved) - I hadn't actually fully uninstalled the software - I had theoretically disabled it (see screenshot) and rebooted, expecting it to behave as though it was truly disabled. Fully uninstalling it did the trick. Sorry about that.

One other odd thing, and this probably isn't DisplayFusion's fault, but if you have any idea what the cause is or if you run into this often, please let me know. Once I had StartAllBack disabled (same with it uninstalled) my clock is no longer showing on my primary taskbar, despite "Show time and date in the System Tray" being turned on. (See screenshot.)

Thank you,

Ah, glad to hear you got it sorted out.

DisplayFusion doesn't have any control over the primary Windows taskbar, but it looks like there's a similar thread from the Microsoft support forums that might help you out: https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/all/windows-11-clock-and-date-missing-on-taskbar/9425b37e-e25d-43b5-9619-b20ee16bb781

Yeah unfortunately that thread is for an old non-working fix for a different problem I've dealt with in the past.

But you made a good point, I'm actually using the DisplayFusion taskbars, not the default Windows taskbars...

We only support replacing the secondary taskbars, your primary taskbar will still be a Windows taskbar :)
