On this screen I have a checkbox, "Hide inactive icons", which I have checked. Then I click "Customize" and I see a list with two separate, clearly labelled, sections in a blue font: "Current Items" and, underneath it, "Past Items". There are like a million past items on my list, but they are not clutter because they are not mixed up with the current items and are all together on the lower list that I don't even have to look at. Also, my guess is that a deletable registry entry will contain the Past Items list, but I'm not motivated now to track it down. I hope my observations can be of some help to you. @paulus

This is to say in the menu (under the start button) than i click with main right mouse on properties ( I do not know the name of the menu) than, i go to the taskbar menu than i click (below right side) on customize notifier menu (there i have about 45 old tray reports cluttering up this menu) and i cant delete one ore more of this old entries (and a few ones i want to keep because i still use them). Please Martin do you (or anybody else) know how i can can clean up the unwanted old entries?
