I've been busy learning windows service these days. I have here a windows service application that monitors a folder then logs all the activities inside that folder. I want my windows service to show in the system tray, how do I integrate my windows service and the notify icon? Thanks! :)

Jump to PostYou have to establish some form of communication protocol so that your application running in the systray and your service can talk without being the same thing.
Jump to PostYou would need a separate application - as a rule a lot of machines are set so that services dont and cant interact with the desktop, as a result the service wont even run if it has forms in it.
