Windows 10/11 modern Way of putting apps in Tray ?
Hi , i am making a C# WPF app for performance boost , one of the features i am working on is closing a selected number of tray apps when a game is opened and opening them again when games closed , but i couldn't figure out how to get what's on the tray , tried multiple ways but all i managed to get is background processes (all of em) , is there anyone here that knows how windows 10/11 put apps in tray (in the overflow arrow) ? how to extract it in C# ?
