Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Classes\Local Settings\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\TrayNotify]
"SystemTrayChevronVisibility"=dword:00000001
Oh I see!!!!The reg setting for hiding the tray stopped working in W11 23H2(?). It's probably still listed by NTLite for older releases.
Some users have suggested this workaround:
Code:Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Classes\Local Settings\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\TrayNotify] "SystemTrayChevronVisibility"=dword:00000001

Explorer Patcher can undo that.Indeed, I had forgotten that garbage Microsoft removed that option
