    Taskbar setting - Icons to display


    I installed Chemtable Autorun Organizer, decided I didn't want it and uninstalled it.

    It the Taskbar settings, Select which items appear in the taskbar, it is still showing not 1, but 2 instances of "AutorunOrganizer.exc Autorun Organizer (performing 1 task(s)".

    It doesn't appear in Task Manager, but I want to get rid of these to entries in Settings.
    I've deleted all references to it in Explorer, and I don't see anything related to it in the registry.

    Any ideas?

    Hi JeffL, The tutorial from Brink below has worked for me when I have uninstalled a program but still had it listed under the Settings.

    Also check startup programs in Task Manager (or Autoruns for advanced check), and run Revo, if something has left over from that program

    Thanks! The Brink instructions worked. It didn't go exactly as described though. My screen went black and I had to restart,, but when it came back up, they were gone. A lot of stuff was gone which concerned me, but I found that running the apps that were gone (like my mail notification), they were added back to the list.
