ros TRUNK r68169
ros explorer_new (run on Windows XP or reactos)
Description
it does not matter whether you do this from reactos or from windows xp sp3:
therefore it's 100% sure that this issue is within explorer_new.exe binary:
start miranda im (i used 0.9.44, but shouldn't matter)
you will notice a systray icon in tray
now kill explorer_new.exe and restart it.
The icon will not come back.
When you do the same with ms-explorer.exe it will always restore the icon.
----------------------------------------
Interestingly ms-explorer always fails at some other icons, which explorer_new always can restore (e.g. WinVNC-server 1.3.10).
Therefore it's pretty obvious ms-explorer and explorer_new use different techniques (messages) to detect running application-icons and restore their icons upon explorer-startup.
Try to find out how ms-explorer does it and implement in explorer_new too (additionally to the current approach).
That way we could have a really good solution, even better than MS^^
