Hi Hector,.

Is it possible to add the option of closing the program

I never thought about that, and I don't really see the interest of it.

How would you close the program to systemtray ? Would it be a menu option ?

Also, personally, I don't like it when a program uses the systemtray, apart from the antivirus and the firewall programs.

The reason is that on the left side in the taskbar, a lot of icons
and programs are listed. I like being able to close a program to
systemtray and hide the icon. So i do not have to scroll trough
the startmenu to start coollector again and i don´t have to place
a shortcut on my desktop !

Coollector starts with windows (in my case) and i like it to start
to systemtray and not closing by clicking on the close button.

Offcourse this is very personal, i think it´s very usefull :yes:

Me too I like to open Coollector quickly, and I use a solution that doesn't even require to have a shortcut on the desktop.

Here's my solution:

1) click the start menu.

2) click "all programs".

3) locate Coollector's shortcut.

4) right click Coollector's shortcut.

5) at the bottom of the popup menu, select "properties".

6) select a shortcut key. Personally, I use CTRL + ALT + C, but you can choose whatever you want.

Now, when you'll want to launch Coollector, you'll just have to press CTRL + ALT + C, or whatever you chose :V:
