Does someone knows a way to hide it for good? Not disabling it, because that could cause some trouble, just that doesn't show in the tray? A .reg file would be awesome.
I want this for 2 reasons: First, I don't use it, I use USB Disk Ejector; and second because it's wasting space. And don't worry, everything in there has a purpose, as myself installed everyone of them.
Cheers!
PS: Sorry for my English, it's not my native language. If there was any misspelling or error, let me know. Also, I had to translate somethings from Spanish to English, so perhaps it's not the most accurate.
On my Win10 I can show or hide some of the icons in the Notification Area. I right-click the Taskbar, choose Properties to get the Taskbar and Start Menu Properties panel. Then I click Customize beside "Notification area:" which gets me the Notifications & Actions panel where I can make changes. I prefer Hide for that particular icon as prematurely removing a USB drive can, and usually does, result in corrupted files. It's needed to assure stopping access to the device when Windows has finished reading it and writing to it.

I know but my picture shows those hidden tray icons. I just want to hide it from sight. It's showing because I have a USB Wi-Fi antenna plug in.
Save the following as a .bat file and place it in your Start Up folder:I know but my picture shows those hidden tray icons. I just want to hide it from sight. It's showing because I have a USB Wi-Fi antenna plug in.Code:reg add "HKCUSoftwareMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionAppletsSysTray" /v "Services" /t reg_dword /d 29 /f systray

You won a cookie! Or a whole cake in this case Thanks a lot Edwin!
Hope this helps some of those who have had problems making this work...Save the following as a .bat file and place it in your Start Up folder:Code:reg add "HKCUSoftwareMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionAppletsSysTray" /v "Services" /t reg_dword /d 29 /f systray
Placing this bat file itself into the startup does not run on my system. However placing a 'Shortcut' to it rather than the actual file, does work. That was not mentioned in the original post.
